 Ingredients List

  • pasta ”“ whatever kind you like, I used whole wheat thin spaghetti noodles
  • frozen, cooked shrimp (remember, I”™m all about shortcuts in my “kitchen” ”“ feel free to use fresh or frozen + uncooked, just adjust cooking times accordingly)
  • frozen broccoli florets
  • minced garlic
  • italian seasoning
  • garlic powder
  • sea salt
  • red pepper flakes
  • olive oil
  • parmesan cheese

 Directions

1. In my “green” pan, I heated a couple tablespooons of olive oil over medium-low heat.
2. Add minced garlic and cook, stirring as you go, until you can smell the garlic (should only take a couple minutes at most)
3. Add the thawed + drained shrimp and season with whatever you like (a little bit of sea salt and red pepper flakes go a long way)
4. Cook for a couple of minutes. Remember the shrimp is already cooked. You don”™t want to overheat it, just warm it up and get it going.
5. Add the frozen broccoli, stir and put the lid on to let the broccoli steam
6. Meanwhile, I cooked enough pasta for two people in my microwave pasta cooker. Consider cooking in vegetarian broth instead of plain water to help flavor the pasta.
7. Once the pasta is cooked + drained, season with some italian seasoning, red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese.
8. Serve the pasta in bowls and top with the broccoli, shrimp + garlic mix
