This mini-series will show you one pot meals that is just that, a one pot meal and dinner is ready and few dishes to clean up. Nice huh! I like that kind of cooking. What’s better than not having a lot of dishes to wash? This shrimp pasta. The hardest thing about this meal is waiting for the pasta to cook. I think you will like this dish and I certainly hope you will try it. We loved it and so did our neighbors. Recipe below

Enjoy!
Karen, Stephanie, & Paul

  1. Hello Karen and Paul!
    Thank you for sharing this recipe. This is Kim from Ohio.
    I hope you and your family have an amazing 2026!

  2. Oh, my gosh!! This looks absolutely scrumptious!! And so easy too! Thank you, Karen, for another wonderful recipe. Can’t wait to make it. Happy New Year to you and your beautiful family. 🩷

  3. wish I could eat shrimp!! Been allergic to it so long can't even remember what it tastes like!!.. I will just use chicken!

  4. Happy New Year ! 2026 is going to be a really good year. My 2nd year of being retired and I plan to enjoy every second of it. This sounds like a wonderful dish. I definitely save my plastic dishes from the store. I take my neighbor food all the time. Y’all have a wonderful week.. Love ya my friend… You too Pop. ❤❤

  5. Good morning 🌞
    Would you tell me which video had the slaw with warm dressing? I searched yesterday but couldn’t find it. I think I’ll love it 😍 Thank you ❤

  6. I love your channel and watching you and your family. You have some great recipes, thank you. Not sure why you keep talking to the other camera though. Have a great day:)

  7. A delicious recipe! Thanks for sharing and thanks as well for the vegetarian meal because recently I have had issues with my digestive system etc and I cannot eat any meat anymore.

  8. I love your description of overcooked shrimp as "an eraser." Perfect! Also, I appreciate your vote of confidence that I will know what's going on (re: cameras) but I can assure you I do NOT know what's going on! The recipe will make me worry far less about that problem. I am sure that your deep love for each other would survive a "garlic disagreement." You two are just a delight as a couple.

  9. That looks delicious! We get gulf shrimp pretty easy out here…. I just have to plan meals with shellfish, my son is allergic ( more for me 😉) so I make stuff like that when he’s not here! My favorite is a good shrimp stew with a brown roux gravy, over rice, with a good potato salad on the side!😊
