RECIPE BACKSTORY
I made this last night and it was really really good. It's out of the latest Light and Tasty. I am including the recipe as published, though I made some changes and additions last night such as using whole wheat pasta, a little butter in the sauce, fresh basil with the parsley, and probably more cheese than was called for, making the recipe more tasty but less light! 1 C shrimp mixture with 3/4 C linguine is 348 calories, 7 g fat, 4 g fiber.
