Is there such a thing as instant when it comes to cooking great tasting pasta? Actually there is, thanks to the makers of bottled sauces like Prego. If you are in a hurry and wanted to create a pasta dish that’s quick and hassle free, try this recipe.

This is actually my first time to cook Pasta Marinara and even though I didn’t have mussels to go with the shrimp and squid, the dish still tasted yummy.

• 2 cloves garlic, chopped (optional)
• 1 piece of medium onion, chopped (optional)
• 8 pieces medium sized shrimps
