Springtime Shrimp Linguine
There's only one thing more awesome about this dish than its tastiness, and that's its speed of preparation. This recipe took about 25 minutes from first chop to first bite, making it the perfect after work dish. I altered the recipe to suit our tastes by adding chopped tomato and green onions.
Quick tip: We're not wine drinkers. I always keep mini bottles of white wine on-hand for cooking so that it's always available but won't go to waste.
