Cajun shrimp pasta

This dish is in my top 5 favorite meals to make. It is SO good. It’s creamy, savory, spicy, and filling. I’ve made it for family and friends, and for myself several times and it just never gets old. Even my babies love it! Serve it with a side salad and bread and you’re set! This dish is just as good if you swap the shrimp for chicken, or if you serve it with no meat at all. Give it a try next time you’re craving a little spice and a lot of flavor.
