WOW what a meal put together by myself, Zatarain's, and American Shrimpers! Tried something new for dinner Zatarain's New Orleans Style Scampi Pasta Mix. You can add Chicken, Pork, or Shrimp, which is what I added, to it to make a complete meal. I used medium size Shelled and Tailless Shrimp. I boiled the Shrimp for about 4 minutes and seasoned it with Old Bay Seasoning. I then cooked the Pasta by the box directions and added in the Shrimp as the Pasta was finishing up. I left the info and details at the bottom of the post on the Zatarain's. The Scampi came out fantastic! Great flavor, seasoned just right with a bit of heat! Real easy to make and the Zatarains Scampi Pasta is only 100 calories and 21 carbs. The added Shrimp was 110 calories and 0 carbs. I'll be stocking up on this, delicious, low cal and low carb, and easy to fix. I had a side of Sourdough Loaf Bread that I baked. For dessert later a Yoplait Delight 100 Calorie Chocolate Eclair Parfait.
