I created this dish tonight on the fly and it turned out pretty good! You can adjust the "heat" to your liking and any other spice for that matter. I think it would also be good with chicken. (Next time) Easy and quick to make but the result gets ... More

Hey donna i cant eat shrimp im allergic to it but my kids like it and i could use chicken lol
good one

tink


I love cheesy creamy recipes!!! This sounds like a good one! I'm saving this one! I might try it with chicken because one of my kids won't eat shrimp.


I just made this and I love it, love it, love it! I had to make some changes because my family is so picky! I subbed chicken for the shrimp and I omitted the coriander and replaced it with black pepper. Other than that, I made it as written! I did triple everything, except the chicken broth and cream cheese...those ingredients I doubled. This worked out perfectly for 1 lb. of pasta! I wish I could of made this with the shrimp because I know I would of loved that also! Great recipe JJ!!!


This looks and sounds delicious! The sauce sounds lovely!


HOW on earth did I miss this one??? LOL LOVE IT!!
