Recipe Round Up

Here is a quick, delicious, and easy meal adaptable to the items you have on hand. I hope you enjoy it and I invite you to share in more yummy deliciousness over at the Krazy Kitchen.


Shrimp (Or Chicken) with Feta Cheese


Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1-2 garlic cloves
1 14 ounce can diced tomatoes
1 lb cleaned/deveined shrimp, medium size 21-25 per lb. (Can also use cooked, diced chicken or Extra Firm Tofu, cubed.)
1/4 to 1/2 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese (Can use Parmesan cheese if preferred.)
Cooked rice or pasta

1.Heat up 1 tablespoon of olive oil in skillet over medium heat.
2.Mince 1-2 garlic cloves. Saute garlic until golden. (Not burned like mine and then I have to start over.)
3.Add one 14 oz can of diced tomatoes, heat thoroughly, don't allow to boil.
(I use the tomatoes with basil and Italian Seasonings. Any brand will do, I buy them on sale and stock up because Canned Tomatoes are one Versatile Vegetable. Our local dollar store carries national brands also.)
4.Increase heat to medium high and add either Shrimp or Diced Chicken.
5.Cook Shrimp thoroughly until pink. Cook Chicken or Tofu until heated through.
6.Spoon tomato/meat mixture over steamed rice or pasta.
7.Sprinkle with Feta or Parmesan Cheese.

This recipe serves four and is a great source of Vitamin C and Protein.
