Tomato and Wild Blue Shrimp Pasta for Two

January 4, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 11 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Yah, it’s finally Friday!! I know it was a short work week, but I can tell ya the weekend doesn’t come around quick enough!  Since time is running short for me today, I’m going to get right into my recipe.  Today I have for you, Tomato and Wild Blue Shrimp Pasta for two.  This is a wonderful and quick recipe that is sure to please any shrimp loving fan!!  it’s slightly sweet, savory and the big pieces of shrimp, is oh so good!

Tomato and Wild Blue Shrimp Pasta

When I was at the Foodbuzz event this past October I met a wonderful vendor who made Aunt Aggie’s Tomato Smash, which is a tomato relish!  This was the best food at the event, I’m not kidding about that.  All the other bloggers raved about it!  I was lucky enough for Tomato Smash to send me a jar of their fantastic tomato relish.  Yah!  What I like about Tomato Smash is that it is organic and the flavors, oh the flavors is like sweet tomatoes meet savory herbs.  I don’t know what it is, but it’s like they have magical heirloom tomatoes or something?  The company is located in Sonoma County, up near Napa which is local to me and the best part is, they pick their own heirloom tomatoes from their garden to make the relish.  How cool is that?  No wonder why it’s so good!!   It’s sweet, yet it has a nice, almost balsamic taste to it.  I can’t quite pin point it, but it is simply out of this world!  I have been holding off on finding the perfect recipe to use my Tomato Relish and I think this dish is perfect with it.  If your interested in Aunt Aggie’s Tomato Smash, you can check out there website.

Tomato Smash


Now don’t despair if you don’t have Tomato Relish, you can always use your favorite tomato pasta sauce for this dish!  This dish is a snap to whip together!   I cooked up my spaghetti and while that was going, in a large skillet, I sautéed my Wild Blue Shrimp with olive oil infused with basil, a little onion, a little garlic and right at the end I added the Tomato Smash.  I cooked it until the sauce was warm and then dinner was served!  Dinner came together in about 20 minutes.  The longest part was waiting for the water to boil.  I hate waiting for water to boil, so annoying!

Tomato and Wild Blue Shrimp Pasta

This dish was a hit with my Husband.  I know I said to serve only 4 oz of shrimp each, but my Husband ate 3/4’s of a pound of it.  He loves his shrimp and he loved this dish!!  The plate I am showing you is my Husbands dish and there is more than 2 oz of pasta on it.  However I’ll be honest with you, I made spaghetti squash and the squash did not turn out, it was quite bitter and I felt the pictures of my meal were not worthy.  So you’re getting Hubby’s dinner portion instead.  But thank goodness I did make more than enough pasta!  I stole some of his and scrapped off my topping from the squash.  Nothing worse than a bad squash!  Ick!!  Have you ever had a bitter squash?  Not good, not good at all!

    Just cooking with tomato relish instead of tomato sauce is likely to make anyone feel like a professional chef. I do love me some shrimp too! Great recipe!

    I think the number one thing that I’d REALLY like you to make are artichoke hearts. I just recently fell in love with them and the only way I know how to cook with them is out of a jar. However, I would love to know how to make them fresh! So, if you could, put a post about how to cook artichokes and some good recipes to use them with, would be amazing!!!!

    I absolutely love your blog. I visit it daily and I’ve made so many of youre recipes and I’ve yet to have a bad one. So I’m definitely looking forward to what you have to offer this year!

      Oh Samantha! You don’t even know how many times I have bought fresh artichokes, and never made them! For you I shall try!! I know it’s easy, but I think it just takes a little. I’m going to the grocery store in a bit, I’ll see if they have artichokes and if they do I’ll make them for you and I’ll let you know how it goes! Thank you so much for the support and kind comments, you always bring a smile to my face!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.
