Getting a Little Greener

Another beautiful day in the neighborhood! I really just cannot get over how beautiful Boulder is in the sun.

Moods are lifted, after school programming can go outdoors, my plants begin to sprout! All is right in my world.

Can you believe that they GREW that much in just one day! They’re doing so well!

For dinner, I decided to keep going with my green theme. That meant more pesto!!!

The Recipe:

• 1 cup cooked rotini
• 1 tbsp pesto
• 7 cooked shrimp
• 1/4 cup quartered artichoke hearts
• 2 tsp sliced olives
• 2 tsp mushrooms

Cook the noodles and shrimp so they are done at about the same time. Mix in the pesto. Add the rest of the ingredients. Simple as that.

I have become mildly obsessed with pesto and shrimp. I really love the combination… then add in some artichokes and it’s over the top good! Perfect quick meal that takes 10 minutes. Definitely good in my book!
