Checca & Asparagus Pasta

Prep time: 30 mins

Cook time: 15 mins

Total time: 45 mins

Serves: 4

Ingredients

4 roma tomatoes

4 cloves of garlic, minced

6 fresh basil leaves, chopped

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 bunch of asparagus

1/2 white onion

8 oz of 100% whole wheat spaghetti (3/4 of a box)

2 chicken breasts

4 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese

salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Chop your roma tomatoes into chunks and place into a mixing bowl. Add in the garlic, basil and one tablespoon of olive oil and combine. Let it sit in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes to let the flavors mix well. This will be your checca mixture.

When the checca is almost done marinading, start cooking your pasta to package directions.

After you add your pasta to the boiling water, start cooking your chicken. Wash and cut your chicken into bite sized pieces. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to a large skillet set to medium high heat and place your chicken in the skillet. Total cook time for the chicken is 6-8 minutes.

While the chicken is cooking, chop your asparagus and white onion. When the chicken is just about fully cooked, add in your asparagus and onion and sauté all together for one to two minutes.

Drain the pasta and add it to the large skillet with all the other ingredients. Mix well to combine all ingredients together. Add one tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese to each serving and enjoy!

Turkey Bacon Wrapped Shrimp with Jalapeno Cream Sauce

Prep time: 30 mins

Cook time: 10 mins

Total time: 40 mins

Ingredients

FOR THE JALAPENO CREAM SAUCE

6 medium sized jalapenos, seeds & veins removed

1 onion, roughly chopped

3 cloves of garlic

1/2 cup of feta cheese

1/2 cup of cilantro

1/4 cup vegetable oil + 2 tablespoons

FOR THE SHRIMP

1lb of shrimp

1 package of turkey bacon

Instructions

FOR THE JALAPENO CREAM SAUCE: Start by removing the seeds and veins from the jalapenos and cut into pieces. (Helpful hint: wear food safe gloves while cutting the jalapenos so your hands don’t start to burn)

Next, roughly chop the onion, and peal the garlic.

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet on medium high heat, and once the oil is hot, cook your jalapenos, onions and garlic until they become soft.

Then transfer the contents of your skillet into a blender. Add in the feta, cilantro, and vegetable oil and blend until smooth and creamy.

Set aside in a container and chill in the refrigerator while you prepare your turkey bacon wrapped shrimp.

FOR THE SHRIMP: Peel and clean the shrimp leaving the tails on. Once the shrimp are clean set them aside.

Heat a grill pan (medium high heat) and spray with non-stick spray.

Then lay a piece of the turkey bacon out flat with one end pointed toward your body. Cut in half down the middle and then cut across making four pieces.

Take one cut piece of the turkey bacon and wrap it around the shrimp. Place the wrapped shrimp on the grill pan. Try to put the ends of the turkey bacon face down on the grill pan so the turkey bacon does not unwrap from the shrimp. Cook for a few minutes on each side, until the shrimp turns pink.

Remove from heat and dip in the jalapeno cream sauce. Enjoy!
