yes you could use frozen. Make sure it is thawed and dried. Instead of cooking just warm it quickly. You will miss the some of the flavor cooking the shrimp might add, but in general shouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

If it’s frozen should you let it thaw? I find in most recipes they never say if the shrimp is cooked or uncooked, so I’m afraid to try the recipe because I’m not sure what to do.

Saute and then add the pesto!

Raw! Just follow the instructions – if you need to cook something, it will indicate (like the shrimp!)

I love looking back at my old posts and see how far I’ve come with my photography…though I *would* love to update old recipe photos, by the same token. 🙂

I’ve looked back at this recipe before, because I was curious once to see where you started! I def want to make this, maybe subbing out the shrimp and adding MORE asparagus. I love shaved asparagus. Such an earthy spring-time flavor!

Can’t wait!

It truly is a wonderful thing! This post just reminded me that I need to do it more often. This looks perfect!

It appears the zucchini is left uncooked as well. I think I’d sort of like to toss them in the pan for a minute to warm them up at least, but that’s just me. I suppose it would be easy enough to try a bite of the noodles first, and then decide if you wanted to cook them a little.

Yes, it’s so nice just shaved! It softens with the pesto and has a great texture!
