Recipe: Shrimp and Chorizo Bilbao Pasta Alfredo
I have several all-purpose cream that needs to be used before it expires. So I thought of a creamy pasta. I am not much of a fan of white sauce but I tried it anyway. Well, it passed nanay Teri's taste. I'm pretty happy about it. I find the creaminess too blande in taste and so I added chorizo bilbao.
