Jarvis Green's Shrimp Alfredo Pasta with Sausage

Ingredients:

2 Pounds Shrimp
½ Pound Thawed Smoked Sausage

2 ½ (15 oz.) Jars Garlic Alfredo Sauce
½ Cup Chopped Onions
½ Cup Chopped Bell Pepper
2-3 Cloves Garlic, chopped fine
1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Pound Linguini Fini Pasta (or pasta of your choice)

• Sauté onions, bell pepper and garlic in a skillet using the olive oil until onions are translucent.

• Add sausage and shrimp and sauté another 10 minutes.

• Add the garlic alfredo sauce, and let simmer for about 20 minutes, just until the shrimp is cooked thoroughly, but tender.

• Add a little milk if too thick, to achieve desired consistency.

• Boil pasta and drain.

• Mix alfredo sauce in a bowl with pasta or serve on top of pasta.

• Sprinkle with a dash of cayenne pepper for an extra kick or shredded cheese.

• Goes great with garlic bread!
