… yes, my weekend technically begins on Thursday night… don’t get jealous… most weekends I spend in my apartment studying away… this weekend, I have a lot of cooking planned (and two papers to write)…lately, a number of recipes have been catching my eye so I’ve decided to make them all and post daily all weekend… so stayed tuned…
Today, I bring you Closet Cooking’s Shrimp Po’ Boy! Um, Yum! Super double yum! This was so delicious! Can’t wait to have the leftovers tomorrow. I used Slap Ya Mama as the Cajun Spice… brought into our life by our neighbor, N… she’s from Louisiana so I think it’s legit…

Post exams… as I was sitting around brain dead (well, I’m still quite brain dead but recovering)… I started cooking… so get excited… many yummy posts to come… this recipe is my go to feed an army meal… it is easy, delicious, and versatile… Sometimes I add the shrimp… this time I kept things simple and halved the recipe, which was still enough for four people with leftovers. I served it with some bread and salad.
Linguine with Feta- Tomato Sauce
(adapted from here)
* 1 pound assorted mushrooms, sliced
* 2 pounds tomatoes
* 4 teaspoons dried basil
* 4 teaspoons dried parsley
* 3 garlic cloves, minced
* 1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper (optional)
* 1/2 pound feta cheese, crumbled
* 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 1 pound linguine
In a frying pan, sprayed with Pam, sauté mushrooms until tender, about 8 minutes. Add tomatoes, basil, parsley, garlic, and red pepper, if desired; stir until heated through. Mix in both cheeses.
Meanwhile, cook linguine in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain. Return to pot. Add 1 tablespoon oil; toss to coat. Add mushroom-tomato mixture to pasta; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer linguine to large bowl.
