Shrimp Pasta Salad
It's funny how the simplest dishes are often the most enjoyable. As a child, I was always so excited to come home and find a big bowl of this shrimp pasta salad chilling in the refrigerator. A couple decades later, it's my husband's number one most requested meal.
I'm not complaining. :-)

ReplyDeleteThanks Shawnda! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds simple yet delicious! I rarely make pasta salad, not sure why, but now that the warm weather is coming around (here in DC) a cool pasta salad sounds perfect.
