Lemon Spinach and Shrimp Florentine with Baked Cheesy Cherry Tomatoes

These two recipes compliment one another so well that they can share a post.  I used Dreamfield's Pasta and highly recommend it if you have never tried their line of products.  Dreamfield's only has 5 digestible carbs per serving.  It is a great option for those on low carb diets or diabetics and tastes terrific.  Any pasta can be substituted in this recipe though.
