Lemony Lemonade

The house we live in happens to have a Meyer lemon tree growing in the backyard. We currently have a crop of about 30 lemons nearly ripe for the picking.


I have gradually been acquiring lemon recipes so as not to waste our home grown citrus harvest. We tried a Lemon Cajun Shrimp recipe a few nights ago. Shrimp is plentiful and cheap here near the Gulf, so I am always up for different shrimp recipes. This one was super spicy, but tasty.
Of course, since it was so spicy we had to have a cool and refreshing beverage to accompany it and what goes better with Lemon Cajun Shrimp than fresh squeezed lemonade?? Nothing, friends. Nothing.
We have also made a lemon poppyseed bread with lemon glaze. Mmmmmm.

Now, your assignment is to send any suggestions for recipes using lemons! If we make your recipe, we will picture it here and credit you with the delicious idea. Thanks in advance!
