Angel Hair with Shrimp and Asparagus

This simple weeknight pasta dish is light and delicious! I love pasta and crave it often. To keep it light, I load it up with lean protein such as shrimp and lots of vegetables! Another popular shrimp and pasta dish is this Shrimp Scampi with Broccoli Orzo.

Helpful Tips:

I usually use whatever wine I am drinking. Pinot Gris, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc are all good choices. You can also omit and use more broth. I like adding crushed red pepper flakes to give it a little heat, but I would leave this out for the kids. Buy shrimp still frozen and defrost as needed. Most shrimp arrives at stores frozen so you may as well buy it frozen and defrost it as needed so it as fresh as possible. To thaw frozen shrimp, transfer the shrimp to the refrigerator the night before or run under cool water to defrost quicker.
