I love the light and fresh flavors of the Mediterranean diet. And the fact that it is such a heart healthy lifestyle is an added bonus.

Last week, I decided to try this Mediterranean Shrimp recipe from wellplated.com last week and it was delicious! It is a simple, one pan dish that can be ready in 30min or less. The roasted tomatoes, feta, olives and artichoke hearts give this dish blast of flavor.

I tweaked the recipe a bit by adding kale for extra nutrients, replacing the red wine vinegar with white balsamic vinegar, eliminating the red pepper flakes and adding dried basil.

I hope you and your family love this delicious and healthy Mediterranean dish as much as Ido!

This Mediterranean shrimp dish is packed with flavors and nutrients.

Kale is a nutrient powerhouse giving this recipe a boost of vitamin A, vitamin K, folate and omega-3 fatty acids.

The fire roasted tomatoes add a blast of flavor to the dish.

Artichoke hearts and olives give the dish a slightly salty flavor.

Serve Mediterranean Shrimp over brown rice, quinoa, or with a slice of healthy whole wheat bread.
