Totally impressive! I wondered about all the flavors "fighting" with each other, but it was delicious! It honestly didn't smell good when I first added all the ingredients together, but after cooking a couple minutes it smelled and tasted wonderful. Followed the recipe exactly, and am glad I did. This was great; thanks!

Of course, I attempted this on a spur of the moment on a Saturday night and adlibed some of the ingredients... Fettucini noodles instead of Linguine, Kalmata olives instead of black, white zin instead of dry white wine, chili olive oil instead of plain olive oil. I didn't know what to think, I followed the recipe and like I said, adlibed....just didn't feel like going to the store...At the point where I added all the ingredients, I cooked it for the 1 minute and tasted it....geez it was sooooo bad...I didn't know what to do (I had used all that good shrimp) So I added the parmesan cheese to the sauce and cooked it in and then poured it in the noodles...stirred it all together...Put the cover on and cleaned up the kitchen. I was sick cuz I thought it sucked...Called my husband and son in to eat and viola...it was great......I probably will cut back on the lemon juice next time if I use the kalmata olives... Well, next time I'll follow it right...

<p>Hello! <br /> <br />I'm a Montana native that has made my way back after a few moves. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for 24 years and we have twin boys who are 18 years old and Freshman in College. I wasn't ready for this empty nest stuff and just want my boys back home! I'm doing my best to adjust. I have continued cooking and am learning how to scale recipes back for just the 2 of us. My husband and I are partners in our own company and own 13 Subway sandwich shops. I work from our home handling all the financial and clerical duties of the business. <br /> <br />Over the years and especially since finding Zaar, cooking has become my passion. My grandmothers were very good cooks and I have fond memories of the meals they prepared. We love entertaining and nothing pleases me more than having my family and others enjoy the food I make. I love it when the house smells good with dinner or whatever is baking. I came upon recipezaar searching for a rhubarb cake recipe one day. The recipe I chose was a 5 star and my addiction began. It took a few months before I started really utilizing the site but once I did my cooking has never been the same. My family now knows all about having to rate recipes, picking their favorite chefs, etc. It's become a family thing and they have told me that I may never let my membership to Recipezaar ever end. <br /> <br />We love to travel and try to go whenever we can. Owning our own business has helped free up time where we can travel more. We've done some Europe, Canada, and much of the U.S. In the coming years I hope to do a lot more. Eating out when we are traveling is the best. I'm trying to learn more about the restaurants and chefs in places we are visiting so we can try and visit those restaurants and enjoy some of the great places our town just doesn't have. <br /> <br />The whole family loves to ski and we look forward to the season every year - it makes winter tolerable. Renting movies or just hanging out with friends is the making of a relaxing weekend for us.</p>
