Say hello to your new favorite one pot meal, Coconut Milk Shrimp Pasta.s This seriously blew away our taste buds and became an instant favorite with the first bite.
Rewind to the time I despised shrimp and then loved it. Growing up I hated shrimp, then there was a stage I loved how my grandma made it and would eat it only that way. Now I’m plain allergic to seafood, sad, But I still cook it all the time with loads of love for my family.
Especially because my hubby loves shrimp! So I try to cook a meal with shrimp for him a every week. This dish I make for my friends and they enjoy it. It’s a crowd pleaser. A shrimp hater would love it too.
The awesome thing about this meal is that it is cooked in just one pot. Only having to dirty one pot and deliver an amazing meal for the family.
The shrimp is cooked in a blend of spices, simple and quite delicious. I love shrimp because it cooks so incredibly fast. It gets tossed in the creamy coconut milk past and the combo is DIVINE.
So basically all of our favorite things in one. Spices, coconut milk, shrimp and veggies…. are you getting hungry? 🙂
