Thursday Dinner

So for dinner last night I decided to mesh two recipes together. I wanted to make Shrimp Scampi but Ryan hates Shrimp so I took some ideas from this Shrimp Scampi recipe, and this Garlic Chicken Pasta recipe, and made up my own recipe. It turned out pretty good, but I want to make some adjustments next time I make it. I was going to put the recipe, but I'm not totally satisfied with it yet, so you can either email me if you want it, or wait till I have it just right and I'll post it. One of the things that's different in this recipe that I've never done before is to boil the pasta in flavored water, and then keep the juices as part of the sauce.
And here is what it looked like when it was done. It was really good.

It looks delicious. You have really been creative this week with your cooking. I need to take a lesson from you. Our meals have been kind of boring. I don't even start thinking about what to cook until its almost time to eat--and then I just make something fast and easy. I should take a little time to plan a week's worth of meals and buy all the ingredients so they will be on hand. That would surely liven things up.

I hope you post the recipe for this when you get it figured out!
