Angel Hair Pasta with Shrimp and Veggies

Sometimes we just have to have our pasta. And I found a recipe low in calories that made it possible.  Another one dish meal (love those).  Again the original recipe came from an All You Magazine.  And of course I changed it up again (because I can rarely follow a recipe just as it is written.

Angel Hair Pasta with Shrimp and Veggies

1 pkg of fresh broccoli florets
3 TB extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
1 lb shrimp, peeled
1 TB red pepper flakes
1 TB ground ginger
1 (10 oz pkg) of baby spinach
1 cup Fresh Basil, ruff chopped
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (14 oz) pkg of angel hair pasta, cooked and drained

Toss broccoli in 1 TB olive oil. Place on baking sheet.  Cook for 15-20 min in 400 degree oven until browned.

While broccoli is cooking. Saute garlic in 2 TB olive oil until slightly browned. Add shrimp cook 4-5 min more until pink. Add seasonings and spinach. Cook until spinach is wilted. Add pasta, broccoli and cheese.  Mix well and serve warm. Top each serving with an additional  1 TB Parmesan.  Melt in your mouth good.
