Since I am not a seafood lover, I don’t very often cook seafood recipes. But, my husband loves Alfredo and he loves shrimp. So this is an easy recipe, and I can pick out the shrimp!
He says this Shrimp Alfredo is ‘the best’! And, I did taste one shrimp, and it wasn’t as bad as I anticipated. When he had eaten all of the shrimp out of the Alfredo & noodles, I added some cooked cubed chicken. Now, that was delicious 👍
Please don’t judge me, but my system does not do well with seafood, thus my dislike. I have tried clams, crab, oysters, lobster & now shrimp. And when I have eaten any of those I developed stomach issues. So it’s easier to just stay away from seafood!
I hope you will enjoy this simple recipe and just remember that if shrimp is not your like, you can always substitute some cooked cubed chicken!
