Shrimp with Penne and Squash image

You can vary this recipe to your own tastes. I most always add onions to the garlic when frying and skip the minced green onions. I have used baby portobello mushrooms also. I always use fresh garlic! This is hubby's favorite meal.

I didn't like this recipe. The shrimp were overcooked and the sauce was bland.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked, but the squash and sauce were delicious. I will definitely try this recipe again, but I will cook the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.
