Connie Emerson

Connie Emerson began experimenting in the kitchen at a very young age. She was only 8 years old when she baked a birthday cake for her grandfather.

These days she is an avid cook and prepares almost every meal. When asked how she came up with the winning recipe, Emerson states, "We have shrimp every week so I'm always experimenting with different ingredients - Contessa Orange Shrimp made me think of warm citrus flavors and mandarin oranges." Emerson enjoys creating innovative recipes, "I like experimenting with different colors and textures. Shrimp makes it easy because it's convenient and versatile - it goes with everything."

"Shrimp is a family favorite and Contessa Convenience Meals are wonderful time savers," says Emerson. "This recipe is not only healthy and nutritious but, best of all, it only takes minutes to put together. It will be a guaranteed crowd pleaser - perfect for warm summer evenings."

Emerson's recipe, Kiwi Lime Shrimp and Citrus Salad won 1st place in Contessa's Convenience Meal Contest, earning her $500 in cash, Contessa products and merchandising.
