Broccoli Shrimp Alfredo

16 ounce package of fettucine or bowtie pasta
1 pound raw medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 garlic cloves minced or crushed
1/2 cup butter
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
1 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese, fresh is best
10 ounce package of frozen broccoli florets, cooked
1/2 tsp salt

Cook pasta.In a large skillet saute shrimp and garlic in butter until shrimp turn pink. Remove shrimp and keep warm. Leave as much butter in the skillet as possible when removing shrimp. In same skillet combine cream cheese, milk and parmesan cheese, cook unitl cheeses are melted and smooth. Stir broccoli, shrimp, salt and pepper to taste into cheese sauce. Heat through. Toss gently with the pasta.

This tastes good reheated. Just add a little milk if you need to before reheating.

Sliced grilled chicken would be good in place of the shrimp. I have also used different veggies in place of the broccoli.
