Mediterranean Feta Shrimp with Tomatoes and Spinach

Another quick and healthy Mediterranean dish that can be prepared in less than 30 minutes. Works great over pasta or couscous (remember those whole grains!).

Ingredients

1 lb medium shrimp, shelled and de-veined
1 can diced tomatoes
6 oz Feta cheese, chopped
5 oz bag of baby spinach

1 clove of garlic, finely chopped
1/2 lemon (juice from)
2 tsp of fresh dill
3 tbsp of olive oil
salt and pepper


In a medium non stick skillet saute garlic in olive oil over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add shrimp. Cook until shrimp begin to turn opaque (about 2 min) and remove from pan.  Add diced tomatoes and feta to hot skillet. When feta begins to melt, add spinach and cook until spinach becomes soft (about 3 minutes). Place shrimp back into the mixture and add juice from half a lemon, dill salt and pepper.  Cook until shrimp are cooked through (approx another 3 minutes).

Serves 3
