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.

This was a great recipe. I used angel hair pasta instead of spaghetti and it worked perfectly.

The lemon cream sauce was delicious, but the shrimp were a bit overcooked. Overall, it was a good dish, but I would cook the shrimp for less time next time.
