With our annual vacation to Florida in prospect, I share a recipe today with you from one of my favorite American restaurants, Red Lobster. This pasta dish is very creamy because of the cream cheese and heavy cream. The recipe below is of course a copycat recipe, but just as tasty. The only thing I’ve added is green asparagus, for some extra vegetables.
