Quick and Easy Shrimp Florentine


This has been a go to meal for me lately - especially when my family is having something unhealthy - like pizza.  It's easy to cook and is very adjustable on how much.  If you would like to feed your entire family or just yourself - this meal is just that flexible.  30 minutes or less and dinner is served.

Here is my recipe for a single serving -
Ingredients -
1 tsp virgin coconut oil
6-8 pre-cooked cleaned medium shrimp (remove tails)
4 organic grape tomatoes halved
1/2 cup organic baby spinach
1/2 cup sliced portabella mushrooms
1/2 cup of water
1/2 cup instant brown rice
salt and pepper to taste
cayenne optional
balsamic vinegar optional

Directions -
Prepare rice by the instructions on package.
Heat small pan over medium-high heat - add 1 tsp coconut oil
Once oil is heated through - add shrimp, spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes.
Season lightly with salt, pepper, and cayenne.
Continue to stir until tomatoes begin to break down and the skins begin to slump - it is done.

Add brown rice to bowl and top with shrimp mixture.  Top with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar (optional).
