This pesto pasta post was created in partnership with Barilla US and Moms Meet. I was financially compensated for this post and did receive a sample for review purposes. As always, all opinions are entirely my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that support me!

 

This delicious and easy meal features linguine in a shrimp artichoke pesto cream sauce. It's sure to become one of your weeknight favorites, thanks to its quick cook time!

With the kiddos back in school, we are all scrambling to get back into a good routine. It can be hard to put dinner together when days are hectic, and there's always something to do.

That's why pasta makes the perfect weeknight meal! It cooks fast and can be made in a variety of ways for even the pickiest eaters.

While this Creamy Shrimp and Artichoke Pasta might not interest your kids all that much, its base is linguine (or whatever your favorite pasta might be), and you can top it with whatever sauce your child loves!

So, keep on reading if you are looking for a great weeknight meal for the adults during the chaos of the school week.

Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto i

Thanks to Moms Meet, I was able to try out Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto. I've always been a pesto fan but hadn't tried this particular brand until now, and let me tell you, it rocks!

I love that this pesto doesn't have to be heated before using, so it works wonderfully as a veggie dip, sandwich spread, or marinade. However, we decided to use it in the most traditional way — in pasta!

The star of this dish is Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto. I mean—how could it not be? Being imported from Parma, Italy, and made from the best Italian basil and cheeses, it has a flavor that makes your tastes buds yearn for more.

My husband thinks it has the best after taste and particularly loves it on bread. 

Overall, this is a super simple meal to make on a weeknight. Essentially, it's just cooking the linguine and heating the sauce, which leaves very few dishes behind—another great thing for a weeknight!

You can make this Creamy Shrimp and Artichoke Pasta with your favorite pasta, but we used the traditional pasta, linguine. While this recipe serves 8, you can easily scale it down for smaller gatherings.

Since Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto mixes well with 16 ounces of pasta, we went with that to freeze meals for later. Everything about this meal is perfect for a freezer meal; just make sure to eat it within six months of freezing.

Trust me; you won't have a problem with that. Enjoy!
