I made this very yummy recipe from Real Simple magazine a couple months ago. We found the portions to be too large when I served DH and I each 1/4 of the recipe as instructed. We recently had a friend over for dinner and I took one serving from the freezer and baked it. It was more than enough for the three of us as an appetizer. I used fat free feta, I think it was Athenos brand, and I roasted my own red bell peppers to substitute for the jar of red peppers.
SHRIMP WITH ROASTED PEPPERS AND FETA
1 (12-ounce) jar roasted red peppers 1 bunch scallions 1 head garlic 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined Olive oil Kosher salt and pepper 8 ounces Feta 4 (1-quart) resealable plastic freezer bags
FREEZE IT: Drain the peppers and cut into 1-inch pieces.
Slice the scallions and 2 cloves garlic.
Combine the vegetables in a bowl with the shrimp, 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
Divide the mixture among 4 resealable plastic freezer bags, top with the Feta (crumbled), and freeze, for up to 3 months, until ready to cook.
COOK IT: Heat oven to 400° F.
Remove the shrimp mixture from the bags (you'll need one bag per serving) and place in individual baking dishes or a large casserole, making sure the Feta is on top.
Bake until the shrimp are cooked through and the Feta begins to brown, about 20 minutes.
Yield: Makes 4 servings
