Kylie, Buon Giorno,

Firstly, thank you for posting your lovely simple and quick Pasta ... I am definitely giving this a try Monday ... It is easy and not too laborious for a vacationing beach bum-ess ...

The Vet and I were online last night and he selected your dish, for Monday´s main lunch meal ...

All we need are the fresh prawns and the Cream Cheese ... and tomatoes ...

Thanks again,
Margi.

Your very welcome Margi

Yes, it is such an easy recipe but very tasty, does certainly need salt and pepper, the more seasoning the better

Enjoy

Kylie: Okay, got the ingredients for your dish

Good Morning, Buon Giorno,

The shrimp, the lemons and the Philadelphia Brand Creamcheese were the articles, I did not have in the house ... I thought to mince fresh cloves of garlic into the Philadelphia Brand Creamcheese; as I am in a small historic town, thus, grocery shopping is not like Madrid Capital or Milano or Sydney, etcetra ...

The Vet had to drive all the way to Bari Port to get Philadelphia Creamcheese ... I am sure, this is well worth it however.

The town´s Farmer´s Market does not carry packaged items ... All is fresh here ...

I am looking forward to preparing it ... And so simple and quick too.

Thanks for the recipe posting.
Margi.

Hi, Kylie. Sounds yummy I had to look up punnet - so, it's a small basket. I couldn't find something that described its capacity, though. Is that a pint? About what weight of tomatoes should be used? Thanks.

 

[Kylie1969]

GG, it is about 12 little cherry tomatoes..the really tiny ones

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I have only just seen your post

I'll try this recipe, but the first time I'll make it without shrimps. It looks like a VERY good recipe, which can be used as a base for endless variations.
