Okay. I'm not a terrific cook. I'd much rather bake, so I read this
newsgroup to get some ideas on what to fix to eat with my desserts!
This has been one of our favourites for years. Served with a large
salad and a crusty loaf of bread and it's perfect for company or just a
nice dinner at home.

Fettuccine with Shrimp and Gorgonzola

--- Gyneth Williams

9 ounces dried fettuccine, any flavor
1½ teaspoons butter
9 ounces mushrooms, sliced
½ cup half-and-half
2 ounces, ½ cup, Gorgonzola, crumbled (can use blue cheese)
½ cup chicken broth
6 ounces cooked tiny shrimp
1½ tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Cook pasta according to directions on box. Drain well and keep warm if
it gets done first.

Meanwhile, melt butter in nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add
mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until browned, about 8 minutes.

Add half-and-half, cheese, and broth. Reduce heat to medium and cook,
stirring often, until cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Do not boil.

Add shrimp and pasta quickly. Lift with 2 forks until most of the
liquid is absorbed.

Transfer to serving platter. Sprinkle with the parsley.

Serve immediately.

Serves 4.

Perfect timing. I got some really nice Gorgonzola at Whole Foods last
week.

Think I'll make it tomorrow night for dinner

Thanks
