My 7 year old students just graduated their first stage classes this evening. Their final challenge was to create a garlic dominated dish for 4 in less than 30 minutes. Completely unassisted.

Fellow Cookpad Chefs? They nailed it! All 15 students each had COMPLETE reign of my pantries, cupbords, root cellars, deep freezers and fridges. It was literally dealers choice for all! What a crazy mess!

Anyway, pictured is the most delicious, super easy and creative dish I tasted this evening. Made by a child who's just about to turn 7 years of age in 2 short weeks! So, ya, that technically makes him 6 right?! His recipe was absolutely outstanding! He even took his own photos and detailed his own recipe!

For a pre-fabed dish - this recipe literally rocked the menu tonight! Go ahead! Give her a try! You won't regret it! I'M SO PROUD!

    Chop your vegetables and cleanly shuck your raw shrimp. Tails, shells and legs. Butterfly and remove the back black veins of needed.

    This was the flat noodle pasta he decided to go with. A delicious decision on his part!

  5. 5

    Boil your noodles covered as per the manufacturers directions. This specific noodle took about 3 minutes. But, know that most can take upwards of 12 minutes.

    Add a little salt and oil to your water as well. About a teaspoon of each. My student used a garlic infused olive oil.

    Stir occasionally to keep noodles from sticking.

  6. 6

    At the same time - add your shrimp to your Alfredo Sauce and simmer covered for 3 minutes longer. Stir occasionally.

    You'll know your shrimp are done when they're partially pink in hue.

    My student decided to make some pre-fabed pull apart garlic bread to serve with this dish for dipping. He baked it for 20 minutes at 350°.

    I love shrimp and decided to try adding it to an alfredo recipe. Worked out great and get many compliments on the dish. I use alfredo with mushrooms, but you could use any type of alfredo.

    So easy to make, know that 7 and 8 year olds made this delectably rich, creamy, garlicy, clamy pasta dish in 30 minutes flat! With a side bread dish!To save time, the kiddos employed pre-steamed hard shell clams and canned baby clams. You can make your own homemade garlic alfredo sauce but, why when Bertolli makes one of the best tasting sauces out there? It's definitely restaurant quality so, why not save yourself some valuable time tonight?

    I swear, my youngest culinary students crack me up! Anytime they're bored while waiting for bread to rise or stews and soups to simmer, they challenge each other to silly cook offs. Today was no different. But man oh man was this one a great, stupid, super rich, easy dish for the little time & money invested! Serve with warm garlic bread and a chilled crispy side salad. Great work once again kiddos! You know me well! I'm all about those delicious easy recipes!

    For a pre-fab, never frozen Italian pasta Ravioli, this dish is not bad at all my friends! Feel free to peruse the RANA brand in your local supermarket as they offer many different delicious styles and flavors of Ravioli! In fact, their entire line is worth checking out. It's important that you use the brands that I listed below though. Many other Alfredo brands will have a tin or metallic aftertaste and other fresh, pre-fabed spinach pastas can leave a bitter taste as well.

    This recipe is actually my version of a certain restaurants pasta dish. It's easy and quick to make and it's really tasty. I use my homemade cajun/creole seasoning ( https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/2997167-homemade-cajuncreole-seasoning ) to make this up, so if the seasoning you use has a lot of heat to it, you may need to adjust the amount you add.
