Orange Shrimp and Sesame Noodles

This combination is a product of my imagination. I love the crunch of sesame seeds and I figured it would be wonderful in conjunction with shrimp. My hunch paid off, it worked!

I'm going to try this with lemon cos I love the zing of lemons. I'm sure it will rock! LOL!
This dish is soooooo gonna be featured more often in my home.
