    This recipe was very easy to make, with very little prep. However, the sauce can be improved by increasing the amount of Salsa and decreasing the amount of cream. I liked the combination of the shrimp and the bass. I served it over Toasted Pine Nut Whole-Wheat Couscous and came out great. Will definitely make again.

    This was a good dish, just not really flavorful. It could use a little more seasoning than the recipe calls for

    Love this dish, my 4 yr. old twins like it too. I've modified it using less cream - try it, you'll love it.
