Seafood Pasta Alfredo


adapted from Taste of Home Winning Recipes cookbook, submitted by Rebekah Beyer

16 oz uncooked linguine
1 zucchini, quartered and sliced
1 c julienned carrots (buy the small bag of pre sliced carrots to save time)
1 small onion, chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp minced garlic
dash crushed red pepper flakes
1 jar of your favorite alfredo sauce
1 lb medium shrimp, cooked, peeled and deveined

Cook linguine according to package instructions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat olive oil. Add onion, garlic, zucchini and carrots. Sauté until crisp-tender. Add shrimp and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the cooked and drained linguine. Add the alfredo sauce and mix to coat all ingredients. Heat until warm; about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

I've been in a chicken rut lately! We eat chicken in soup, chicken pot pie, baked chicken and veggies. This is a nice addition to the weekly menu. It breaks up all those nights of chicken! It's easy, quick and affordable.
