Preparation

Step 1

COOK spaghetti as directed on package, omitting salt.

MEANWHILE, bring milk just to simmer in large nonstick skillet, stirring constantly. Add cream cheese, Parmesan and pepper; cook and stir 3 to 5 min. or until cream cheese is melted and sauce is well blended. Add shrimp and tomatoes; cook and stir 2 min. or until heated through.

DRAIN spaghetti. Add to sauce; toss to evenly coat.
SAFELY THAWING SHRIMP
It's great to have a bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer for a quick meal. Thaw frozen shrimp in the refrigerator, not at room temperature. Or, place the sealed package in a bowl of cold water and change the water every 10 min. until the shrimp are completely thawed.
