Shrimp Capellini Alfredo

A super easy and delicious meal to prepare after work.**  

Serves 2

1/2 lb. capellini pasta (angel hair)
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 lb. cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1/2 cup diced fresh tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 cup half and half
4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.  Add pasta and cook for 3 minutes or until al dente; drain.

In a large skillet, cook and stir the tomatoes, shrimp and garlic in the butter for about one minute.  Pour in half and half, stir.  Sprinkle parmesan cheese in one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly.  Keep on low heat, stirring often.  Sauce will take a while to thicken.

When sauce has thickened, add drained pasta to sauce in skillet.  Toss to coat and serve hot.

**Serve with simple salad with Italian Vinaigrette and small baked Ciabatta rolls (the half baked ciabatta rolls from Trader Joe's are the best).
