Lemon Cream Shrimp and Pasta image

Lemony cream sauce with pasta, vegetables and shrimp. If you love lemons, this sauce is to die for. I cut this recipe in half for 2 and it worked out just fine with a little leftover.

This dish was way too salty for me. I had to add a lot of water to the sauce to make it edible.
