A new favorite. I just added some fresh sliced mushrooms just before the spinach, and about 1 T of Italian spices along with the cheese. 5 stars.

ReplyDeleteShrimp Cheese Shrimp Penne Pasta with Spinach is the husband’s favorite for a many reasons but mostly it is very creamy and really good! Shrimp, cheese, spinach and pasta are a great combination and who wouldn’t like such a dish? It is interesting how Pakistan clothing manufacturers are branching out into hospitality and lifestyle products too with growing number of such local brands sharing recipes and meal plans etc. This specific pasta food is definitely quite a treat for people who are fond of strong tasty food.
