๐ฒ PESTO SHRIMP PASTA PRIMAVERA
Inspired by and adapted from 2 great recipes from @twopeasandpod and @hiddenponies


โช๏ธ Penne Pasta
โช๏ธ Xlrg Shrimp
โช๏ธ Asparagus
โช๏ธ Green Peas
โช๏ธ Grape Tomatoes
โช๏ธ Carrots
โช๏ธ Corn
โช๏ธ Zucchini
โช๏ธ Alfredo Sauce
โช๏ธ Basil Pesto
โช๏ธ Parmesan Cheese
โช๏ธ Asiago Kale Salad Kit @yourtaylorfarms
It was okay – but I tried to get slick cooking the Asparagus, Zucchini, Corn and pasta in the Instant Pot – it was too long for the asparagus and zucchini so they were mushy, the corn was great and the pasta cooked well but I like a more al dentรฉ noodle so less time next time…. And just steam the veg like I usually do…
I do think pasta in the IP would do well for me with a little less time and my Chef IQ gave me a great idea… Using the steamer basket sitting on the bottom prevents a burn notice and is self straining (see daily video) – very cool!
