Shrimp pasta with a little bit of everything :)

I've really been trying hard to stay away from the grocery store as much as I can :) We spend so much... so much $$ on food! However, we do eat very healthy so it's hard not to eat fresh and go often.

Today I was all set to throw a whole chicken in the crockpot, but when I took it out of the packaging it smelled bad! So now I have to take it back and get another. So I decided to go with shrimp for dinner... my go to for any meal I'm not prepared for. I always have a bag of wild shrimp in the freezer ready for easy dinner.
