Simple Shrimp Canapes

Hey Foodaholics, how the weekend?

So as i was breasting the babies this morning, phone rang. A delegation from my house fellowship is coming over to see the twins. Oh how wonderful Church fellowships can be, supporting lives spiritually and otherwise since 19-kiridi-no-date.

Anyway, i was excited cos they have been trying to get a hold of me for some weeks. Now, i have to think up how to entertain. Fridge and Pantry getting empty cos its almost month end and with a full house, you really dont expect to find all your stuff in one piece (I love full houses, trust me when you have twins you will be grateful for all the hands you can get).

Fridge, Pantry, ...found left over bread, shrimps and some other things so i thought Canape (with an accent on the "e"cos its a french word hence its pronounced Kanapei).

Canape is just some kinda bread or pastry topped with any sweet or savoury ingredient, quite decorative to go with drinks. Usually served at Cocktails.

Ain't cocktailing this morning, just need something to quickly serve my guests as they were just like 10 minutes away.

INGREDIENTS
4 Slices of Bread
Shrimps
Cucumber
Seasoning
Oil
Lime Juice
Butter

Tap pictures for procedure. 

Clean Shrimps

Wash cucumber and layout your bread

Season shrimps as desired. I used, chicken seasoning, pinch of salt, cameroun Pepper

A dash of Lime juice for accidity

Lay bread on a heated pan to toast

Turn the otherside to toast too (mi love the golden crisp)

Add a table spoon of oil in pan

Toss shrimps in it till cooked (dont over cook it so u can enjoy its juiciness)

With the help of a cookie cutter get round shapes from bread ( Unfortunately Cookie cutters were in the studio kitchen so i used a little round cup to cut out the shapes)

Peel and cut the cucumber

I cut round shapes off the Cucumber for the lemonade i made alongside and quarterd the round shape cucumbers for d canapes

The Fellowship gave the twins these beautiful duvets, we are very grateful.

Luv ya all and have a restful weekend cos am going to have a good nap now as the boys have fallen asleep.
