15 Minute Roasted Garlic Shrimp

During the week, I’m always looking for an easy meal. Few dinners are easier than roasted shrimp. You simply toss the shrimp together with olive oil, garlic, and herbs and bake. Serve with a large green salad and, if you feel like it,  some garlic bread.

If you have any leftover shrimp, you can make a quick dinner the next night. Cook up some gluten-free pasta, I prefer spaghetti for this but use whatever you love. Toss the pasta with olive oil–or melted butter if you feel like splurging. Add the shrimp and throw in some cooked spinach. Season with salt and pepper. Dinner, done!
