Of course, I never make a recipe exactly like the directions say! I used rice instead of pasta. I also didn't have enough canned tomatoes, so I used half as many and also halved the amount of feta cheese. Another great recipe from Cooking Light Magazine.

Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic, sauté 30 seconds. Add 1/4 cup parsley and tomatoes. Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Add shrimp; cook 5 minutes. Pour mixture into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish; sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 400°F for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup parsley, lemon juice, and pepper; serve over pasta.
