Expert Tips Look for 41/50 count shrimp, which are a good size to team up with cherry tomatoes and other chopped veggies. Boost the nutrition without adding calories by including halved sugar snap peas or quartered artichoke hearts (packed in water). Whole-grain pastas do take a little longer to cook but are still tender and offer more dietary fiber than bleached-flour pastas. A small sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese would add lots of flavor without adding a significant amount of fat. Finish off each serving with a generous handful of chopped fresh herbs.
