We had company last week for dinner. I wanted something yummy that I could eat too. This was DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!

Shrimp and Broccoli Alfredo

1 pkg fettuccine
1 lb shrimp
3 garlic cloves ( I used 5-6)
1/2 c butter or margarine
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese (I used 1 and 1/4 packages of reduced fat)
1 cup of milk (I used 1 and 1/2 cups)
1/2 c shredded Parmesan cheese
1 pkg (10 oz) frozen broccoli florets
1/2 tsp salt
dash of black pepper

Saute shrimp and garlic in butter in skillet.
Remove and keep warm.
In the same skillet, combine the cream cheese, milk and Parmesan cheese. Cook until cheeses are melted.
Place broccoli in saucepan with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 6-8 minutes.
Stir broccoli, shrimp, salt, and pepper into cheese.

Enjoy!

I'd have to eliminate the garlic, but it sounds yummy anyhow.

I am not a fan of Parmesan, so I will use Mozzarella as well which is the only cheese I like, well except for cheese cake! LOL! Just found out "officially" that hubby can't do milk products very well. Are there any lactose intolerant people out there that can guide me to a good cheese. He does worse if it eats milk products in the evening, so I may just fix it for Sunday after church.
