We like pasta with Italian tomato sauces, and this recipe is one we make often. It’s heavy on the shrimp and light on the pasta, and that’s the way we like it…we can remember when shrimp was unheard of in our budget, so I guess we’re making up for it now!

This is good. I added salt, a little sugar, and extra garlic.

I added extra garlic, which I think helped boost the flavor. My family enjoyed this.

Very good! All my kids liked it (although my youngest wouldn't eat the tomatoes). I added sweet pea pods to it with the pasta. We also sprinkled with feta cheese afterwards. Healthy & delicious :)
