Recipe: Creamy Alfredo Pasta with Shrimp, Mushrooms and Peas
Hi Friends! I mentioned that I'm cooking my grandmother all of her favorite foods. She put in a request for Shrimp Alfredo. This recipe is a staple for me and I use the sauce to make many other pasta dishes. We had a great evening eating this dish and reminiscing about childhood memories and growing up in St. Louis. I hope this recipe makes your belly happy.

Banana Pudding for MawMaw
 |
| My Sous Chef |
In 2017, my maternal grandmother passed away right before Christmas. Her loss was devastating to my family. This past December, my paternal grandmother had a heart attack and was told she has 30 days to live. I'm not ready to lose her and neither is my family. She's active, funny and so loving. My daughters adore being with her. We went to visit her last week and I asked her about her favorite foods and what I could make for her. She asked for banana pudding. I made the recipe below and she loved it. Please keep her in your prayers.
