What a wonderful dinner this was! For my vegetables I used green and yellow onion, asparagus, broccoli, and cabbage. For the pasta I used angel hair. This was easy and so delicious! It smelled wonderful while cooking and tasted even better. I always buy bags of shrimp when they are on sale and I look foreward to making this again.
