SHRIMP PASTA SALAD

Please See Other Recipes

Shrimp Pasta Salad is one of those recipes that tastes amazing yet it is so easy to prepare, your guests literally won’t be able to resist this recipe!  Pasta salad makes a great side or even a main dish, regardless of the recipe, but this recipe takes pasta salad to a whole new level of yum!
If you’re serving this meal at a potluck you’ll want to be sure it stays chilled…  mayonnaise and shrimp sitting on the table in the hot sun isn’t a good idea!  I always take a larger bowl and put some ice in it.  I then set my bowl of pasta salad on the bowl of ice which keeps everything chilled to the right temperature.
This recipe uses small shrimp (I prefer to buy pre-cooked frozen shrimp) but you can use canned shrimp or even chop some larger shrimp if it happens to be what you have on hand.  I use a small pasta for this recipe (such as macaroni or shells) but really any kind of pasta will work, just use what you have!
