Shrimp Pasta Salad A Lane Family Favorite

Pasta Salad with Shrimp

~ A Lane Family Favorite ~

Ingredients:

16 oz pasta cooked and drained
2 cups of fresh broccoli florets, cut in small pieces and steamed lightly

1 c chopped green pepper
1/2 c chopped green onion slices

1 cup tomato, chopped

16 oz of tiny frozen shrimp, thawed (I've also used imitation crab meat.)


Just a note, we like our salad creamy, so I double the dressing ingredients. The amounts below are the single ingredients. Try it as is, and make more if you'd like it creamier.

1 c Miracle Whip salad dressing
1/2 c Kraft House Italian dressing

1/4 c grated Parmesan cheese, I use Kraft.

salt

pepper

I boil a box of macaroni in whatever shape and amount that I fancy. Rinse the pasta in cold water, drain, and refrigerate until ready to assemble.

Cut or chop all your veggies.

Rinse your shrimp in a colander under cold water and drain well.

Mix together the dressing and Miracle Whip. Add salt & pepper and lots of grated Parmesan cheese to your taste.

Now, mix it all together and let it chill for a few hours.
Add tomato right before serving so that it doesn't get soggy.

My kids and husband absolutely love this.

I hope your family does, too.

God bless you,
