Shrimp Pasta Pesto
"I spent all day looking at shrimp recipes because I was thawing some out. I found a few that were interesting and I saved them but after all that work I made my own creation in the end. The only complaint I got was that I did not make a big enough pot. If I do say so myself this was AWESOME!!!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I love to cook and have been expanding my knowledge here for over a year. My fiancee moved in with me around the time I started frequenting this site because I had to make the same things taste different so we will not get bored. I am about to graduate with my BFA in Art Education in May. My wedding is in June, soooo my plate is pretty full physically and metaphorically... I think the greatest thing about this site is not only do you learn new ways to cook great tasting meals, but you also become more capable of making up your own recipes.
