Saturday night pasta

Honestly, the day of the week has nothing to do with this recipe. I just wanted a better name than 'Shrimp Linguine,' and I happened to make it on a Saturday night. Lazy naming aside, this dish was also one of the most successful of late. My daughter loves both shrimp and noodles, so she was always a guaranteed slam dunk. My wife, however, isn't as crazy about shrimp, and yet she polished off two big servings. Hooray for Saturday Night Pasta!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a mixing bowl, whisk the olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, fennel seeds, and pepper flakes with a good pinch of salt. Stir in the shrimp, then put the bowl in the fridge for 30 minutes to marinate.
- 2
Drop the noodles into a large pot of boiling salted water. When the noodles are 5 or 6 minutes away from being cooked, move on to cooking the shrimp.
- 3
Add a splash of olive oil to a large pan on high heat. Throw in the tomatoes and sear them for 2 minutes until they're slightly scorched and have given up some of their juice. Pour in the shrimp and marinade and continue frying for about 3 minutes, until the shrimp are just cooked.
- 4
Drag the cooked pasta into the pan of shrimp sauce. Add the baby greens and give everything a toss to coat. When serving, drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil on top.

Pasta Pomodoro Pasta Pomodoro
While my family and I are true-blue carnivores, even we have our limits. Having enjoyed way too much meat the last week, we decided it was time for something a little lighter. Since it'd also been ages since we had a nice Italian-style pasta, I chose to cobble this dish together using techniques from a few different recipes. It worked out perfectly. Robert Gonzal -

I saw something similar when I was doing a vegan diet for a while. I came up with the sauce on my own using some things I've picked up. Ironically I made a pink pasta during breast cancer awareness so spread the awareness with this one. Try it and let me know what you think. Ronnie Long
