How to Make Shrimp Pasta Salad:

Cook your favorite pasta, I like to use Farfalle for this recipe. While the pasta is cooking, whisk together the simple lemon garlic dressing. When the pasta is done cooking, drain and run cold water over the pasta. Place pasta in a large bowl and add cooked shrimp, fresh dill, and Parmesan cheese. Pour dressing over the salad, toss, and serve.

See, I told you it was EASY! This is a great dish to take to parties and potlucks because it is a cold pasta salad with no mayo. The lemon dressing is easy to whisk together and is so fresh, especially when paired with the dill and shrimp. It is an elegant and impressive dish, no one will never know how quick and easy it is to make. This easy pasta salad can be served as a side dish or main dish and is great for lunch or dinner.
