Cooks Network Shrimp Fra Diavolo

Making a delicious dinner shouldn’t be rocket science and shouldn’t take all day to make.   When time permits I cook my own sauce, but when time is short I turn to products I know and trust and Barilla is definitely one of the brands I depend on.  Many thanks to my friends at Barilla for sponsoring this post.




Check out the deliciousness I created in the time it took to cook the pasta!   Shrimp fra Diavolo is a restaurant style dish that you can create in your own kitchen in less time than it would take to pick up take-out at a fraction of the cost.  All of a sudden a weeknight meal after a busy day just became a special occasion.




I was thrilled to find out that BJ’s Wholesale Club was now carrying Barilla® Organic Pasta Penne/Spaghetti 6 pk and Barilla® Pasta Sauce 4pk (which are exclusive to BJ’s).   I love shopping at BJ’s and especially enjoy the in store demo’s.  Stop by your local BJ’s, Saturday March 5th to sample these delicious Barilla® products!

Let’s start by gathering our ingredients (mise en place) to make Shrimp fra Diavolo. In a matter of minutes, my ingredients are simmering on my stove-top and will be on the table for an easy and delicious dinner.  Sure beats the drive-thru!

Shrimp fra Diavolo, a delicious way to turn an ordinary day into an extraordinary evening!  Of course you can use Barilla® Organic Pasta and Barilla® Pasta Sauce many different ways to come up with your own dish of deliciousness.  What would you add to make your own Barilla® Organic Pasta recipe?

Barilla® Pasta Sauce is made of Real Vegetables, and is All Natural and Gluten Free.  It delivers on the promise and you can taste the real difference.  Barilla® Organic Pasta is Certified organic wheat, It contains No GMO ingredients, always cooks up “al dente” and is  deliciously organic.   Now that’s what I’m taking about!
