Shrimp alfredo with Pici noodles

With our sea food feasting is quickly coming to an end, officially ends on January 6th 12am, some will call that January 7th not the 6th, but what ever. I am working through my last few sea food dishes. I did have to go to the store and re stock up on sea foods. I am happy to announce that I have not eaten beans even once during this fast. Which is saying quite a bit, because it is a staple during these times. This fast has gone by so quickly and I do not think that my family has missed not eating land animals at all.

With that being said, today I made Shrimp Alfredo. The recipe that I had made for a very plain dish. I decided to veer off my original quest and add to a dish that I had never made before. I added fresh garlic, sliced mini portobello mushrooms and of course shrimp. I also added fresh ground pepper. I think most dishes are better with a bit of fresh pepper. It always adds to the dish.

The noodles I chose were Pici noodles. They are similar to spaghetti noodles, but a bit thicker and should be cooked al dente. The whole dish came together really well. I loved this dish. The kids both really liked it too. A change in thought for Rougeh also, he asked me to put the leftovers in a dish so he can eat it again for lunch tomorrow. For those of you who do not know my husband, He NEVER eats leftovers. He does not like them. He enjoys his food fresh not a day old.

This dish we both think will be even better the next day. Time will tell. Another success though as far as my sea food goes.
