Shrimp Italiano over Linguine
"This comes from an old recipe book of mine, I think I have had it 15-20 years. It is called 30 minute meals. The ingredients may seem a little odd, but this is excellent. I have yet to have one person served not like it. Usually they go home with a recipe card as well."

It's true, the ingredients do seem a bit odd, but they totally work! This is a fantastic, quick meal. It is already a favorite and will be in our regular meal rotation. I already want to make it again tomorrow night! -
This was quick, easy and very tasty, the only departure was to cut back (i used 1/2) the amount of olive oil and butter.

Mom loves to cook
Central, MA
I am a single mother of 2 children 9 and 11, I love to cook and I am teaching my 2 children to cook, they both love it. I live in Central MA. I am always looking for quick and easy things to make after work. I don't have a favorite cookbook, but I have run out of room for the ones I do have. If I can get just one recipe from a book it is worth the purchase. I love to entertain and my friends love to eat my food. I usually take a few recipes read them and then come up with something scrumptious. I sit behind a desk all day and when I need a break I visit cooking websites. (SHHH don't tell my boss) When I am not cooking I am working, raising my kids or riding my motorcycle.
