No Time-No Problem
Just because you're short on time doesn't mean that you can't have a fabulous homemade meal or dessert:
Shrimp and Scallops with Angel Hair Pasta
2 lbs of angel hair pasta
2 bags of frozen shrimp and 2 bags of frozen scallops
1 bag of frozen broccoli
1/3 cup of olive oil
1 stick of butter
2 tablespoons of garlic salt
2 tablespoons of parsley
2 teaspoons of pepper
3 teaspoons of basil
1 teaspoon of minced garlic
Fill a big pot with salted water and heat to boil
in a large saucepan heat the oil and the butter on medium low till melted add the minced garlic then turn the heat down so you don't burn the garlic and
add the rest of the seasonings.
Next add the seafood that is thawed. Heat till it is heated through on about a medium heat.Then stir in the broccoli.If it looks like you might need more butter then go ahead and add accordingly.
Add the spaghetti when the water is boiling.Cook til tender then drain.
Serve the seafood/sauce over a nest of cooked angel hair pasta.
If you want add mushrooms to the sauce and grape tomatoes also black olives are good in it.
