Shrimp Fra Diavalo and Pesto Parmesan Toasts

 Shrimp Fra Diavalo -- loosely based on a couple of recipes from over the years --added in white beans to kick up the nutrition and fiber.

INGREDIENTS:

1 bag of fun pasta -this was galetti
1 # shrimp - uncooked, tails removed
1 can petite cut diced tomatoes with green chilies
1 large can of marinara sauce
capers
black kalamata olives
2 small onions diced
1 can canellini beans -rinsed and drained
2 T pesto
EVOO

 In large stirfry with EVOO heating in it - saute onion until soft.( check out the neat new flexible mat -worked great!)

 Once sauted 'dump in' shrimp, beans, diced tomatoes, kalamata olives and capers. Cook thru until shrimp are pink about 4-5 minutes.

Here it is all cooked heated  and ready for pasta!



 In the meantime cook pasta per package instructions and drain and toss with with shrimp mixture.



Add in the marinara sauce and pesto and stir together.

 Here it is completed --yummy!! Felt good about balancing the pasta with the high fiber and protein beans --it was a quick and easy to assemble meal!


Quick and easy pesto toasts -- we had a loaf of multigrain bread --I sliced it and topped each slice with a smear (or schmeeer) of pesto --grated fresh parm over the top and back in oven at 450 for 5 mins or so until parm cheese melted . Enjoy!!
