| Starting at the tail end, butterfly each shrimp, cutting to, but not through, outside of shrimp. Set aside. Combine lime rind and next 5 ingredients (lime rind through chili oil); stir well. Combine 1/3 cup marinade with shrimp in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal bag, and marinate shrimp in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Combine remaining 1/3 cup marinade, bell pepper, and next 4 ingredients (bell pepper through noodles) in a large bowl, tossing to coat. Place a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add shrimp; saute 5 minutes or until done. Combine shrimp with pasta mixture, and toss gently. Sprinkle each serving with nuts. 
To Freeze: Freeze in freezer safe container.

	| Not a fan of this flavor, not sure what it is. Maybe the combo of lime with the other flavors. |  |

	| We didn't care for it either.  Took this over to Tim and Joyce's for New Years.  It was unanimous...something about the lime and curry threw it off for us. |  |
