Cajun Shrimp and Arugula Pesto on Penne:
¼ cup onion
5 -7 shrimp
Some Cajun seasoning
1 cup penne pasta cooked
1 – 2 Tbls of Arugula Pesto
1 Tbls. Extra virgin olive oil
Arugula Pesto:
One cup arugula
2 cloves of garlic
½ Tbl salt
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 parmesan cheese
2 Tbls extra virgin olive oil
Mix everything in a food processor
In this video we make Cajun shrimp with arugula pesto on penne. I am a huge fan of arugula and this pesto is the best. The sunflower seeds add an amazing flavor and texture to the dish. If you only make one of my recipes this is the one to make! You can make it vegetarian by dropping the shrimp; this is how my wife eats it. This is also a great way to use up the bitter arugula leaves that you let get to big in your garden. Thanks for watching!

This is one of my favorite videos! You did an amazing job on this pasta dish!
Great looking dish. But u need more shrimp on ur plate lol.
Thanks 🙂
Measurement conversions can be a problem.Thank goodness for the internet. Love your style by the way.
Yummy
A lot of Aussie's use metric, so I have to get my conversion app fired up when I want to make something I see on YouTube. 🙂

Thanks August, Since your reply I've seen this everywhere. Rocket I know. Thanks for the other info. Definitely helps with international recipes.

It's got a great peppery flavor, I love it too. That is so wonderful you are teaching your 3 year old how to eat right from an early age. Bravo!
Thanks, Joanne! I am arugula’s #1 fan. I try to work it into everything. Plus, it’s the only green thing my 3 year old will eat. We are growing some in the laundry room under lights. 🙂 We actually grew the arugula in the video together.
Arugula pesto? You're awesome. AND the cajun shrimp? This dish looks incredible!
Arugula is #1 for me! This is a great way to use it. You will not be disappointed if you try it. I promise.
It is banging! 🙂
yep… definitely on my must try list!
Thanks for the sub and I hope you enjoy it!
Cheeky, I believe you Aussie's call it rocket. A few other names for arugula are rugola, rucola, roquette, garden rocket, Mediterranean rocket. It has a spicy nutty flavor that I love!
🙂 Thanks for watching
Nice dish August we call shrimps prawns here in Aussie. What is arugula?
Love Cajun flavors. Thanks for this lovely recipe!
You are multi-talented. Growing and cooking! Maybe you should make a show about gardening too! 🙂
You don't need much oil at all! Just enough to brown the onions and shrimp. I hope you try this one. :)

This looks delicious…I used to order something similar like this at a restaurant by my house. The only thing didn't like about it was that when I was almost done there will be a pool of oil at the bottom but this one looks much healthier.
Yes me and the boy have been growing arugula in the closet. He eats one leaf a day!
Did you grow that arugala yourself?
