Cajun Shrimp Alfredo image

This recipe is a keeper! I absolutely loved it. I didn't have Cajun Seasoning, but I found a great recipe online (I've posted it separately). I didn't have Gruyere so I used what I had on hand, and it was still phenomenal. Recipe courtesy of Family Circle May 2010 and Rebekah Diehl-Shipper of Sterling, Ohio.

I didn't like this dish at all. The shrimp were rubbery and the sauce was tasteless.

The shrimp were a little overcooked. I would recommend cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

The sauce was a little too thin for my liking. I would recommend adding more flour or cornstarch next time.

This dish was a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
