Ever come home so tired you feel like you are going to drop and wonder what in world you can prepare in just a few minutes? I have one answer for you. My Mediterranean Shrimp can literally be on the table in just a few minutes.
My trick is that I keep a bag of pre-washed spinach in my refrigerator all the time as well as several pounds of shrimp in my freezer. Corn or corn and rice pasta are staples in my pantry. So, when the stresses of the day take their toll, you can have this one on the table in no time.

Here is my recipe:
4 ounces Farmo corn and rice pasta
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick butter (no substitutes)
1 pound medium shrimp (16- 20 count), peeled and
deveined with tails removed
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 cups fresh baby spinach, washed
Here is how I did it:
1. Fill medium sauce pot 3/4 full of water. Add
salt and pasta; bring to boil and cook 8-10 minutes or according to package
instructions to desired degree of doneness.
2. While pasta is cooking, melt butter in
a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and shrimp. Turn
shrimp after 90 seconds and should be pink on the bottom. Place spinach on top
of shrimp.
3. Cook another 90 seconds before beginning to
stir mixture. Remove from heat as soon a spinach wilts.
4. Drain pasta and place in serving bowl. Add
shrimp and spinach mixture on top of pasta. Serve immediately.
