CAJUN SHRIMP LINGUINE
From Cooking Light May 2016. Classic Cajun flavors-the smoky spicy seasoning, sweet shrimp; and onion, green bell pepper and celery trinity-give this pasta toss a New Orleans vibe. A jolt of ground red pepper spices things up nicely while creamy half and half smooths out the edges.
