Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

I was so excited to try this recipe and it turned out just as good as I had hoped it would. Lots of great flavors going on in it with the spinach, mushrooms, and shrimp with the creamy wine sauce and all. I didn't expect to like the nutmeg in it but it gave it sort of a stroganoff taste which I loved! Thank you for such a great recipe!
