Kevin - let me know if you want a more impressive pasta suggestion with shrimp. Rigatoni with butternut squash sauce and shrimp is great. You can test it out on yourself first, and if it sucks go for the easier stuff.

I'm not Kevin but I'd love both recipes!

Ditto on the Rachael Ray suggestion. You might pick up a copy of the current issue of her magazine (June/July). It has some really easy looking recipes in it, including one for Spinach salad with shrimp and feta cheese that I'm making tomorrow night.

Also, if you have a Whole Foods in your area, GO THERE. You can choose just about anything ready to cook, from italian dishes to seafood/meat/poultry, as well as amazing cheeses and produce. They'll even tell you how to cook whatever you're buying!
