Shrimp Pesto Pasta Recipe

My mom had given me a bag of Mac Nut Pasta made by Sun Noodle and I didn't know what to make with it, so I posted a picture of it on Instagram, and asked for suggestions, and two people recommended pesto sauce.  I went to the market and bought a small jar of pesto and some shrimp and here's what I made:





Ingredients:
Olive oil
Butter
Raw shrimp tails
Grape tomatoes
Minced garlic
Pesto sauce (fresh or jarred)
Cooked Pasta (any type)
Parmasean cheese

1. Remove shells from shrimp and de-vein
2. Sauté shrimp, garlic and grape tomatoes in olive oil and butter

3. Add cooked pasta and toss with approximately 4 TBSP of pesto sauce (you use less or add more depending on your preference)

4. Top with Parmesan cheese

You can jazz up this dish a lot by adding almost any kind of veggie or using chicken instead of shrimp!
