Scrumptious Scallops and Shrimp With Linguini
"I found this recipe on the web and made some adjustments. I added shrimp to the recipe and changed an herb that was listed. This recipe is so simple to make, but the flavor is WOW! Plus, it's beautiful when it sits on the plate."

I made as written, but added mushrooms. In things saucy so I added a cup of leftover Alfredo at the end. Very good -
I have made this recipe countless times now, and I must say it's as delicious and beautifull as it sounds!!! Was fairly easy and quick, and has restaurant-quality taste and presentation! The ONLY thing I added was a heaping tablespoon capers, which I happen to love; I did NOTHING different as far as directions and ingredients.....have recommended to friends with absolute agreement! This recipe is definitely a 5-star beauty!!! -
Very very yummy, even my non seafood eating housemates had a crack at it. I would probably put more tomatos in too, just didn't seem saucy enough. I used fresh herbs from my garden. Will definately make again. Thanks for a great dinner.
