Quick Pasta Shrimp Alfredo

 

Penne Pasta cooked and drained (or your favorite pasta)

1-2 jars of favorite Alfredo sauce, I like Bertolli's

1 bag of ready to eat large shrimp

1 can mushrooms

 

 

This is pretty quick once you have the pasta cooked, I thaw the shrimp, (run under cold water and take tails off) , add them in a saucepan with the Alfredo sauce and mushrooms.  Sometimes if I happen to have any broccoli in the fridge I will steam that in microwave and toss in too.  Once this is all heated up just toss over the pasta.  I serve this with some good Italian bread.  We never have any leftovers.
