Ingredients
2 1/2 cups uncooked penne pasta (or anything else but spaghetti)
3/4 lb medium shrimp (we usually use more)
3 cups fresh spinach, stems removed and torn up
1 cup grape tomatoes, cut in half
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 package (about 4 oz) crumbled feta cheese
1 can black olives, drained and sliced
Instructions
1. Cook pasta on the stove as directed on package, during the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking add shrimp.
2. While pasta is cooking cut up remaining ingredients and add them to the salt, olive oil, and oregano.
2. Once pasta and shrimp are cooked drain.
3. Once shrimp and pasta are cooked and drained stir in the rest of the ingredients. Spread evenly. You can mix everything together in the dutch oven!
4. Let everything cook in the dutch oven for 15-20 minutes, making sure to stir the dish every five or so!
Notes
*We used about 15 coals on top and 10 on the bottom it worked nicely!
*This recipe is pretty customizable if you want to add or take away something it still always tastes nice!
*We always make it with garlic bread too!

ReplyDeleteThis meal was delicious and made great leftovers!
I will say that we were confused with the coal instructions! Turns out when you are boiling water to cook the pasta you need ALL the coals on the bottom. After the pasta is cooked you can then transfer coals to be on top as well for the rest of the recipe.
Cooked with Katherine Hoff
ReplyDeleteAs Katherine mentioned, would need all the coals at the bottom because you would need to use the dutch oven as stovetop to cook the pasta. The water did take a while to boil so expect a total cook time of about an hour rather than the 15-20 minutes stated in the recipe.
