- When selecting tomatoes, look for ones that are fragrant and soft to the touch.
- When selecting feta cheese, look for one that is brined and aged for a few months for the best flavor.
- Substitute olive oil with coconut oil for a healthier alternative. Coconut oil is rich in healthy fats and has anti-inflammatory properties that can help protect the heart and blood vessels.
- Substitute the white wine with vegetable broth for a vegetarian option. Vegetable broth adds an earthy flavor and is a great substitute for those who do not consume alcohol.
Mexican-Style Shrimp With Cotija Cheese Replace the feta cheese with crumbled Cotija cheese. Replace the white wine with tequila. Replace the parsley with cilantro. Replace the tomatoes with a can of diced tomatoes with green chilies.
