Creamy Lemon Shrimp PastaWow! This is a huge hit at my house. Great recipe to serve if you are entertaining a group of people. I have also substituted the shrimp with chicken and I have used all different varieties of pasta with this recipe and it is awesome!!  Serve a mixed green salad or fresh fruit on the side and it is a perfect meal.

Suggested Wine pairing

Massimo Sauvignon Blanc
This recipe screams for a Sauvignon Blanc pairing!  The refreshment and acidity that Sauvignon Blanc delivers is great at cutting through the creamy nature of this dish and pairs beautifully with the lemon. This pairing is a perfect example of the food and wine complimenting each other and makes them both better.
