Mediterranean Fettuccine With Shrimp and Spinach

I got this off the back of some store-brand fettucine noodles and gave it a try. Dh said to make sure I kept the recipe! It is very rich and I usually decrease the salt and dried basil to help that a bit, and I thinned it down just a bit with milk, but otherwise it's a fancy-looking dish with very little effort.

Good and easy! I was unsure if you needed to squeeze the water out of the spinach but did it anyway. IMO, the feta makes this dish. Changes-used pre cooked shrimp. Sauteed with garlic for 1-2 minutes then threw them in the mixture. I also increased the garlic. Next time I will decrease the sour cream and bump up the red pepper flakes(alot).Reply
