Ruby Tuesday copy cat Shrimp Parmesan - The Peaceful Mom

Shrimp Pasta Parmesan (Ruby Tuesday Copy Cat Recipe) is a guest post from JC.

_________________________________________

I think every now and then we all get a craving for “fancy” restaurant style meals. Thick decadent sauces and tantalizing layers of flavor that dance through our heads can make our typical home meals seem dull and boring.

So many people truly believe that they cannot cook like a restaurant chef, but I’m going to let you in on a little secret: menus in most chain restaurants are created to be cheap and quick in order to get the most profit possible. What does this mean? Many of the recipes from your favorite places are easier than you think!

Here is a copycat recipe that I developed for Ruby Tuesday’s Shrimp Pasta Parmesan.

The total cost for this recipe is roughly $4.80 per serving. Compared to the $10-$15 per serving meal at a restaurant, you would save roughly $5.20-$8.20 per serving by making this at home, so your savings for two would be $10.40-$16.40! The total preparation and cooking time for this meal is roughly 25-30 minutes, or about the same time it takes most people just to get to the restaurant. Save yourself the money, time, and gas– try cooking from home!

    Not the actual recipe… A cheaper version and more accurate is :
    The pasta cooked according to the pack
    The shrimp is 18 small peeled and deveined shrimp sprinkled with a Cajun seasoning for 5 minutes
    Toss pasta with hot Alfredo sauce
    Top with shrimp and sprinkled with diced tomatoes.
    Sprinkle with parsley…
    1 serving…
