Can not stop making this summer fresh SHRIMP & SPINACH PASTA

shrimp

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: canned tuna

Chicken is leaner, while canned tuna is budget-friendly.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

white wine

🥗Healthier: chicken broth

💰Cheaper: water with lemon juice

Chicken broth adds flavor without alcohol.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is healthier.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (360 degrees Fahrenheit).

Spread Orzo or small-sized pasta over the bottom of a medium-sized baking dish.

Add olives to the dish, being cautious of any pits.

Add cherry tomatoes to the dish.

Add fresh feta cheese generously over the pasta and other ingredients.

Add spinach to the dish, noting it will shrink during cooking.

Use raw peeled shrimp, optionally marinated in olive oil and garlic.

Season with black pepper and smoked paprika instead of red pepper flakes.

Drizzle olive oil over the mixture and lightly mix everything, especially the bottom part with pasta and cheese.

Add chicken broth, using double the amount of pasta, ensuring it is strong and good-tasting.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, mixing once if desired.

Serve sprinkled with freshly grated parmesan cheese.
