Since we're trying to increase the amount of seafood we eat, I'm always on the lookout for quick and tasty eats, and of course, since it was Saturday, I also wanted to use up the various odds and ends we had around. Looking around, I saw some grape tomatoes and collard greens nearing their ends. Maybe a quick shrimp dish with pasta? Pasta's usually pretty quick. And so a dish began forming. I could cook up some onion and garlic for flavor, throw in the greens, and then tomatoes and shrimp! Quick and easy, not to mention tasty. :) You could also substitute spinach for the collard greens - just throw them in at the end. Hope you enjoy!

What's a favorite dish you made just by throwing stuff together?

      Well, it is a "throw whatever together" meal, so maybe you have something else that would work? :) Maybe try it with some fish or chicken?

    What a delicious dish, CJ! I love making 'bottom of the fridge' stir fries with leftover ingredients but this looks extra special. What a great way to celebrate Saturday. Thank you so much for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party! Take care and stay well.
