- 1/2 c. diced green onions
- 1 Tbsp. diced garlic
- 1 lb raw shrimp peeled and deveined

In a large pot of salted water, cook the whole wheat pasta to al dente. Drain and toss with olive oil.
Meanwhile, while the pasta is cooking, in a large skillet over medium heat, saute the green onions in garlic in the butter for 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook until they are pink and opaque. Add the lemon juice and tomatoes to the pan and cook for 1 minute, just until the tomatoes are heated through.
Remove from the heat and toss everything with the pasta. Top with the Parmesan and serve immediately.
