Directions
Green & Yellow Squash ‘linguini’ W/ Shrimp Scampi, Super light and deliciously satisfying, this creation totally hit the spot on a night I was craving pasta! The best part is? It’s so light, feel free to go back for seconds, maybe even thirds! And Never fear, that “fat” is healthy fat Monounsaturated fat aka MUFA from the olive oil ; The kind that’s good for you!, There is such a variety of sizes in both summer squash and zucchini. How much is actually needed – either by weight or volume? Thanks!!, I made this for dinner tonight using 3 zucchini and 3 summer squash. I had just over a pound of fresh shrimp, so I threw it all in. I only had red wine so I substituted chicken broth for the white wine. used dried basil and parsley even though I wasn’t sure because they recipe didn’t specify dried or fresh. The flavor was good, but it had a little more heat than I had wanted. Next time I will go easier on the red pepper flakes.
