Shrimp Scampi Fettuccine | ||
| Description: | I like this recipe a little more every time I cook it. It is less heavy than the scampi's you might order in a restaurant, and the calorie counts are better. There’s a lot of red pepper flakes, giving it quite a kick. People sensitive to spice can easily hold back on that. The original recipe called for Linguine but I like the wider Fettuccine noodles. | ||

| Every time I make this recipe, I tell myself the sauce is too thin, but then it thickens up. Not tonight. I changed the recipe to start with ¼ cup and increase as needed. |

|
||
| This time I doubled the bell peppers so it would count for my vegetable and added another tbl of heavy cream to make the sauce a little lighter. |

| Getting back to basics after a few fancier meals. |
