Add chopped garlic and shrimp; cook until shrimp turn pink, but do not allow garlic to turn brown. Add parsley, mushrooms, onions and red pepper; sauté for 1 minute. Add flour, mix thoroughly and add wine. Simmer for about 30 seconds, then add cream and heat through. Drain noodles and add to sauce with half the grated cheese.
