What a treat! This colorful tasty dish was a delight to serve for supper last night! The combination of the carrots & peas along with the pasta and pink cooked shrimp was very eye catching! I had to substitute rotini pasta for the farfalle, but it worked perfectly. I added just one more clove of garlic (personal choice)and I'm afraid a few more than 1/2 cup of peas fell into the mix, but the rest, I followed your directions to the letter. Very quick to prepare. I will make this again, Paula! Thanks for submitting it to Zaar to share with us!

    So fast and easy and totally delicious! I used flash frozen shrimp and just thawed them and threw them in the pan. Excellent recipe for a night when you are running behind and want something healthy and quick! Thanks!

    I just started cooking about a month and a bit ago, and this was a dish that was SIMPLE SIMPLE SIMPLE and tasted incredibly good. My fiance (who comes from a long line of french chefs) ate three helpings and would have eaten more...thank you!

    This is excellent! It's very light but has a wonderful flavor. I left out the shrimp to make it vegetarian and used soy cream cheese and soy parmesan, but other than that I followed the recipe exactly. The instructions were very easy to follow and in no time flat we had a wonderful dinner that my family raved about. I'll be making this again soon!

    Delicious, light, lemony sauce. A perfect weeknight dinner, goes together quickly. I used frozen mixed veges in place of carrot and peas.

    Easy and delicious! I used onions and green peppers for the veggies (personal preference). I also used whole wheat pasta, and it worked really well with this sauce. Thanks for sharing!

    What a lovely meal Paula thanks for sharing your recipe. My husband can’t have any fat, oil or dairy in his diet so the following changes were made. I left out the olive oil, cream cheese and the parmesan, although I did add parmesan to my own serve. I used vegetable stock and used a little extra stock to replace the oil when I sautéed the garlic etc. It has now been added to our regulars. Thanks Glen.

    Very good, quick and easy. I left out the cream cheese since I didn't have any. I also added some lemon juice along with the zest. It has been added to my dinner rotation. Thanks so much for sharing.

    This was delicious and healthy too! I was using bought chicken broth so I reduced it by about half. I added some cornstarch to thicken up the sauce. For the veggies I used red pepper and zucchini. The red peppers particularly went well in this dish, I thought. I thought the garlic might be a little overpowering, but it wasn't and the lemon flavour was just great! A plust was how quick and easy it was to make! I will definitely make this again
