It's Fabulous

Molly is WAY into High School Musical 2 and thinks that everything is "fabulous." Troy is "fabulous"- not cute, I am "fabulous", and last night's dinner was "fabulous!"
This is a recipe out of the Kraft magazine that I doctored up a bit.

Zesty Shrimp and Pasta

8 oz. package linguine, uncooked
3/4 cup Sun-dried tomatoe vinagrette dressing
2 cups sliced mushrooms
3 scallions sliced
1 can (14oz.) marinated artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
1 lb. uncooked cleaned large shrimp
1 Tbsp. chopped parsley (fresh)
1/2 cup sundried tomatoes cut into small pieces
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Cook pasta as directed on package.

Meanwhile, heat 1/2 cup dressing in large skillet on medium heat. Stir in mushrooms, scallions, artichokes, and sun-dried tomatoes. Cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add shrimp and parsley; cook 2 minutes or until shrimp are pink and vegetables tender, stirring occasionally.

Drain pasta and return to pot. Add shrimp mixture, remaining 1/4 cup dressing, toss lightly.
Sprinkle with cheese!

Variations: subsitute broccoli or red pepper for any of the veggies or add them too!
Makes 6 - 1 cup servings
