Servings: 1 if served as main dish, 2 if served over pasta.

Ingredients:
1/2 tsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp minced garlic (or one clove fresh)
~15 grape tomatoes
~12 cooked, tail-off shrimp (mine is the 50-70 count from Costco)
~1 cup raw baby spinach
salt
pepper
lemon juice
balsamic vinegar
parmesan cheese

Directions:
In a skillet over medium heat melt coconut oil. Add garlic and saute until golden. Add shrimp and cover. Cut tomatoes in half and add to the skillet once the shrimp has (mostly) thawed. Salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking covered for a couple minutes to allow tomatoes to slightly stew. Remove cover and continue cooking for another minute to allow some of the water to evaporate. Add spinach and toss with tomatoes, shrimp, and juices. Transfer to plate and drizzle with lemon juice and balsamic vinegar. Top with parmesan cheese and enjoy!
