Shrimp and Spinach Rose Pasta


We made this for dinner this evening, it was quick and tasty. And perhaps I was excited to try posting to this blog, but either way I would and will eat it again.

Ingredients:
1 cup shrimp (give or take) we used frozen pre-cooked shrimp
Pasta for 4
1/2 Jar Alfredo Sauce
1/2 Jar Marinara Sauce
6-7 Fresh mushrooms, sliced.
1 sliced yellow crookneck summer squash (or zucchini can be substituted)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon (give or take) garlic salt
1 teaspoon basil or 4 leaves fresh basil shredded
ground pepper to taste.

Directions:
Heat oil in frying pan (we used non stick, but would have been equally as easy in the cast iron)
Add squash and mushrooms to warm pan, let cook for 8-10 minutes stirring occasionally. Meanwhile begin cooking pasta until tender. Once mushrooms begin to brown, add shrimp, garlic salt and basil. Cook until shrimp is thawed (or cooked if using fresh shrimpies). Add Marinara and Alfredo sauces, stirring until a nice "rosey" color is reached, add pepper to taste.
Pour over pasta and serve!
