Made this with the mentioned Trader Joe's langoustines. It was very tasty. Will make it again. A little bit more prep than usual, but I had everything chopped, grated and ready to go. Plus, the langoustines are already cooked so cooking time is reduced. A nice blending of flavors. Pretty, too. Thought about adding frozen peas for color. Perhaps next time!

I love to try new recipes and often try so many new recipes that I forget about all the great ones I've already made. My focus in cooking is to cook healthy and lower in fat without compromising the taste of the food.
