Best Mexican Chicken And Shrimp Alfredo Recipes
CREAMY CHICKEN AND SHRIMP ALFREDO
You'll love my twist on this creamy Alfredo. It's a little heavy on the hips, but worth every bite. A perfect match with a nice green salad, and you must have garlic bread to sop up this creamy sauce.

MAMA'S CHICKEN AND SHRIMP ALFREDO FROM SCRATCH
Mom made this the other day and it rocked. It creates a ball and chain to the kitchen for awhile, but you could prepare some of this the day before and cut on the time. I like the parmesan mix with asiago, but you can use just plain old parmesan if you want.
