Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 06:21PM
If I had a pantry like this one, deciding on Sunday Supper...or any other meal for that matter would be so easy...
Can you imagine ...just standing and dreaming and choosing? So fun!
But instead I spend a lot of time surfing Pinterest, and find some amazing recipes. Like this one for Shrimp and Pasta with Herbed Goat Cheese. It's from the blog There Goes The Cupcake.
The Recipe...
12 ounces uncooked angel hair pasta (or any pasta of your choice)
6 tablespoons (3oz) herb-flavored goat cheese
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 cups chopped asparagus
3/4 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2/3 cup chicken broth
other options:
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
2 cups snap peas
1. Cook pasta in boiling water 10 minutes or until al dente, add asparagus during final 2 minutes of cooking. Drain pasta and asparagus and place in a bowl. Add cheese, basil, salt and pepper, stir until well blended.
2. While pasta cooks, heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic, saute 30 seconds. Add shrimp and cook about 5 minutes or until shrimp are almost done . Add broth, cook 1 minute or until shrimp are done. Add shrimp mixture to pasta mixture, toss gently to combine.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: about 1 1/2 cups.)..
Haven't decided if we will eat in the kitchen...
or at the table...
Which would you choose?
It's your turn. Let's talk!

Yummy supper Mona. It looks great. Now, if I could only stop by around dinnertime! LOL
I am definitely going to try this reciipe since I love pasta and always looking for something different. As for the eating area I would choose either one, the kitchen for relaxed and dining room for romantic. To be honest I'll set a place just for myself in the dining room and settle in with a book, it makes me slow down and enjoy!

OMG, that pantry! Thx for stopping by RHS! Have a great weekend.
This shrimp and pasta dish sounds delicious! Of course, I have pinned it! Kitchen or dining room?? Both look inviting!
Man, does that does look good!
I find myself wondering if a nice Italian white Verdicchio would be a good pairing...
Sally and I may have to do a test and report back to you...
Almost ready to do the PInterest thing...
Sally and i will be following you as soon as I figure it all out.

Oh my gosh! I made this last night for Valentines Day for my 3 teenage triplets and one of their friends. (I'm not exactly sure who he came to visit with, my 2 boys or my daughter) His leaving HER a box of chocolates might be a clue! Any way, thats another story. I want to tell you that it was a fabulous dish! Easy and so delish! There was actually a time of quiet as they each took their first few mouthfuls. And they are never quiet! Thanks for the recipe!
