Healthy Recipes Healthy Ingredient Recipes Healthy Pasta and Noodle Recipes Creamy Shrimp & Mushroom Pasta 5.0 (2) 2 Reviews Cashews are the base of this delicious shrimp pasta dish. Blending the nuts helps thicken the sauce and provides creaminess—no actual cream required! Straining the cashew mixture removes any unwanted large pieces. Chopped rosemary adds freshness to break through the creaminess of the dish.
