Ingredients

  • 2 hot links (sliced)
  • 8 oz large shrimp
  • 2 packs protein noodles
  • 1 cup chimichurri sauce
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta
  • 2 tablespoon parmesan cheese
  • 4 slices crumbled bacon

Instructions

  • Add sliced sausage to a hot skillet and cook for a couple of minutes, until cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, remove the tails from the shrimp, then add the shrimp to the same pan and cook for an additional minute.
  • Add noodles to the pan and stir to combine the ingredients.
  • Pour the chimichurri sauce into the pan and stir to coat the noodles.
  • Allow the noodles to heat all the way through, which should only take a minute or two.
  • Stir in the bacon, feta, and parmesan cheese. Serve.

Notes

    • One of the reasons this recipe works is because the protein noodles are made with haddock (fish). The shrimp, sausage, and chimichurri sauce all complement the noodles.
    • Although the noodles are flavor-neutral, I would not recommend serving them with tomato-based sauces, such as spaghetti sauce. Instead, choose olive oil or cream-based sauces that would usually be served with seafood.
    • Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
