Shrimp and Feta Greek Pasta Shells with Tomatoes, Zucchini, and Peppers
  1. 1

    Whisk rice wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, a pinch of salt, and black pepper together in a bowl; slowly whisk in 2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil while whisking constantly. Pour the vinaigrette into a jar with a tight-fitting lid.

  2. 2

    Position an oven rack on the highest level and preheat the oven's broiler to high.

  3. 3

    Toss zucchini and bell pepper with 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and black pepper. Arrange them on a large, rimmed baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Broil in the preheated oven until spotty brown, 8 to 10 minutes, flipping the zucchini slices and pepper halves once. Transfer to a large bowl to cool, then cut into bite-sized pieces.

  5. 5

    Fill a large pot with 1 gallon water and 2 tablespoons salt; bring to a boil. Add shells and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain thoroughly (do not rinse); transfer to the baking sheet. Set aside to cool.

  6. 6

    Place zucchini, bell pepper, pasta shells, shrimp, tomatoes, feta cheese, olives, onion, and oregano in a bowl or a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag (it can be refrigerated for several hours). When ready to serve, add the vinaigrette; toss to coat.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
