Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 (12 ounce) package tri-color rotini pasta

  • 1 pound cooked shrimp, chilled

  • 2 tomatoes, chopped

  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped

  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 cups broccoli florets

  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning (such as Mrs. Dash)

  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Run pasta under cold water and let cool in a large mixing bowl.

  2. Add shrimp, tomatoes, bell peppers, onion, broccoli, vinegar, garlic, oil, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Toss well, coating everything with the spices, oil, and vinegar. Chill for at least 1 hour.

  3. Serve cold; sprinkle Parmesan over individual servings.

Recipe Tips

Add or remove any fresh vegetables as desired.

Instead of Italian seasoning, you can use fresh oregano and basil to taste.
