  1. Thank you so much. This is the first time I have attempted to make shrimp alfredo sauce. The taste was exactly what I was aiming for. I doubled the recipe and used margarine,and I had to mix cream and milk to get half and half. Also, I realized the sauce was not going to thicken so I added a slurry of corn starch and cold water. It thickened almost immediately but I let it simmer for a few more minutes. I know it sounds I tweaked a bit too much, but I will make as you directed next time when I have all called for ingredients. This sauce was so flavorful that I didn't even have to use the parmesan cheese. A real keeper! Thank you again
     
  2. Automatic 5 star. My DD LOVED this. She ate all of the leftovers by herself and she is only 3. Very simple to prepare. I made as stated except I added 1 T of flour to help the sauce thicken up. Will make this one again.
     
  3. This is a yummy, garlicky shrimp and pasta dish. The only change I made was that I added the parmesan cheese to the sauce, because the sauce does not get thick at all without it. Basically the only reason that it did not get a "5" is that the sauce needed to be a lot thicker, and there needed to be more of it. I ended up almost doubling the sauce (with the cheese mixed in). A+ for flavor, though. Thanx for posting this. With my own variations that I mentioned, I will make this again!
     
  4. Very good recipe. I advise doubling the sauce ingredients. There was enough for about 3 meals and i had a lot of pasta left over without sauce. The sauce is creamy and full of flavor. Like another user said, I would suggest sprinkling in a handful of flour and letting it mix in before adding the shrimp or half and half. If you add it after the shrimp and half and half, you risk having flour clumps in the sauce. I did this, but managed to keep it clump free thankfully. Can't hurt to add a little extra garlic or pepper in my opinion.
     
  5. this is great. I used low carb alfredo sauce instead of the half and half. Its a keeper.
