This may be the best shrimp recipe i have ever made!! i threw in veggies and shrimp in pasta water for about a minute after to warm up-and the cilantro was left out as the store had none and it is out of season. fantastic!!

I tried basil and also served it hot. Next time oregano and garlic.

The only thing I change in the recipe was I used fresh Parsley for the cilantro as I don't like the taste of cilantro. I used the Kraft Light Toasted Sesame Asian dressing.. Delicious, It is now on my summer menu forever!Next time I might toss in some slivered almonds and some mandarin oranges for a change of ppace.Peggy

I cooked the shrimp myself (just sauteed in a little amount of olive oil with some pepper and garlic powder). I served the dish hot (as my husband is a little hesitant about cold pasta). Delicious and easy!
