Leftovers: Shrimp w/ Pasta Roni – Italian Herb Pasta

Dinner Tonight: Leftovers -  Shrimp w/ Pasta Roni – Italian Herb Pasta








Started my morning off by Scrambling 2 Eggs, fried 2 Jennie – O Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links,
toasted 2 slices of Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Love a good Breakfast! Outside its in the 70's, a bit more humid, with passing rain all day. Not much to do but do some cleaning the house.Everything done so I met a friend of mine that was in town over at a B-W 3'S and  kicked back to watch an afternoon of some College Football. For Dinner tonight its Leftover Shrimp w/ Pasta Roni – Italian Herb Pasta.





When I prepare a Pasta and Shrimp Dish and there are leftovers you almost always count on my
Dinner the next day will be leftovers, like tonight! Just can't let Pasta and any seafood go to waste. So there was plenty of leftovers left from last night's Shrimp w/ Pasta Roni – Italian Herb Pasta. I have a microwave plate with warming lid, which I used to reheat everything. Both the Past and Shrimp were just as good the second time around! For dessert later a Weight Watcher's Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Bar. I've left the original post from last night below, for cooking instructions and description, Enjoy!
 



For the Shrimp part of the dish I used Kroger Brand Jumbo Shrimp. I had them in the freezer so I let
them thaw overnight in the fridge. I love the Shrimp and Seafood. For the Shrimp; I started by rinsing the Shrimp off in cold water and letting it dry in a colander. Using a medium size skillet, that I sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray and a 1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, that I heated on medium heat I cooked the Shrimp. I seasoned them with Old Bay Seasoning. Cooked them 2 minutes per side, turning the Shrimp once. And as the Shrimp was cooking I started to prepare the Pasta.




So tonight I'm using a box of Pasta Roni Rustic Recipes Olive Oil and Italian Herb.It comes with the
Pasta (Linguine) and Olive Oil and Herb Seasoning. I added; 1 3/4 cups of water and 1Tbsp. of Light Olive Oil. Then to prepare it; In a medium saucepan bring water and Olive Oil to a boil. Then slowly stir in pasta and Special Seasonings. Separate pasta with a fork, if needed. Return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Boil uncovered, 10-12 min. or until pasta is just tender, stirring frequently. Sauce will be thin. Let stand 3-5 min. to thicken. There’s 2 servings per box. Nice seasoning and the Olive Oil and Herb Seasoning are perfect with the Linguine. I topped the Pasta with some Kraft Reduced Fat Grated Parmesan Cheese. Just too good, this makes one delicious Shrimp and Pasta Dish!
