1 bn Broccoli; (About 1 1/4 Lb)

Cook pasta twists according to package directions.

Trim broccoli stems, and cut in 1/4" slices; separate florets. About 5
minutes before pasta is done, add broccoli. Continue cooking, stirring
twice, until pasta and broccoli are firm-tender.

Meanwhile, in large skillet, (if you were to use the oil add it now) add
tomatoes, garlic and salt. Simmer 1 - 2 min more, stirring once, until
shrimp are pink and cooked through at center. Remove shrimp mixture from
heat.

Drain pasta and broccoli and return to saucepan. Add sauce; toss to mix.

To Microwave: Cook pasta and broccoli as directed. Into a 3 qt
microwave-safe bowl, (add oil if you choose to use it) tomatoes, garlic and
salt. Stir, then cover with lid or vented plastic wrap. Microwave on High 4
~ 5 min, or until hot. Stir in shrimp. Cover and microwave on High 3 - 4
minutes, stirring once, until shrimp are pink and cooked through in center.
Proceed as directed.

This was very good and quite filling.
