This might be on the menu this weekend...Have penne, gargonzola and shrimp just waitin' to meet. Thanks for the addition! :)
EDIT--This WAS on the menu this weekend and it was fantastic! The sauce didn't end up being as thick and creamy like an alfredo, rather it just coated the pasta with a rich, wonderful bit of bitey goodness! ;) Other than adjusting for feeding a lot of hungry people and using right from the garden green onions, I don't think I changed anything.

Never tried nor heard of Gorganzola cheese, any help? Would LOVE to try this dish, although sadly I'm not as versed in Italian dishes as many are!
