Directions
Easy Spicy Shrimp Pasta – Low Fat, Adjust red pepper as desired! Romantic little recipe for two that wont leave you too full to flirt! Yummy garlic and wine sauce coat the shrimp and pasta. A salad and some crusty fresh bread would be very nice with this and a nice chablis or chardonnay wouldn’t hurt either! I came up with this after totally revamping a recipe found on healthycookingrecipes.com. “PLEASE adjust the seasonings to make it perfect for you and DO let me know how you change it up.” Enjoy! UPDATE! Yes, as listed portion is quite large as you would find in a restaurant. Feel free to reduce the amount of pasta to save calories. We always have leftovers which is fine by me! I remove the shrimp to reheat. Zap pasta in micro for a few minutes then add the shrimp on top for about 20 seconds to remove the chill! Also feel free to experiment! More tomatoes, canned tomatoes just use organic or add a pinch of sugar less red pepper, more red pepper. You get the idea. Enjoy!, I make mine with Tofu Shirataki Angel Hair. 10 calories, 3g carbs, 2g fiber. It soaks up all the flavors that you are creative with. The man-child that always told me that he would not be eating tofu. When he finished with his 2nd plate, I let him in on my little secret!, Absolutely fantastic! And so easy to make. I added a bit more fire by using spicy peppers, but I loved the base.
