  1. 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and start your rice cooker if you're using one. Put tomatoes in 13 by 9 baking dish and drizzle with EVOO.  Mix to coat thoroughly.  Roast until soft and beginning to char – about 12-15 minutes.

  5. Top shrimp mixture with fresh herbs, mix thoroughly and serve over brown rice with a side of asparagus.
