Creating Tomato Spinach Shrimp Pasta is simple when you follow these clear steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Begin by boiling water in a large pot. Add a pinch of salt and cook the linguine or spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté Shrimp: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
3. Sauté Garlic: To the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
4. Add Tomatoes: Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and dried basil. Cook for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften and release their juices.
5. Combine Ingredients: Add the freshly cooked pasta to the skillet, along with the sautéed shrimp and fresh spinach. Toss everything together until the spinach wilts.
6. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes if desired.
7. Serve Hot: Plate the pasta and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if you like. Serve immediately and enjoy.

By following these steps, you will create a delightful Tomato Spinach Shrimp Pasta that will impress everyone at your table!
