Shrimp Asparagus Alfredo Pasta
This is a creamy, garlicky and buttery dish that is easy to prepare. Your entire kitchen will smell amazing while preparing this dish. This is one your mouth will definitely enjoy. This recipe is not for those who are looking for low calories or fat. Go easy on the salt because Parmesan is naturally a salty cheese. I hope you enjoy making it as much as I did.
