This Shrimp and Spinach Pasta can be served warm or cold, either way it is gonna impress!

The dressing is made of a simple olive oil, lemon juice and parmesan cheese mix. Really it is pretty healthy for you an won’t leave you feeling overly full. 

YOU can also serve it for lunch or dinner, so I will leave that up to you!

This simple pasta salad can feed a crowd easily, just throw it all together in one big bowl and it’s good to take anywhere! I like to leave the tails on my shrimp, it adds flavor to me. 

My partner prefers them removed, so do what works for you!

I never really used to like pasta salads, mainly because I found them to be heavy and or covered with an unhealthy dressing.

It is pretty healthy and you can really tweak it to your liking. 

I prefer to add equal amounts of pasta to shrimp to spinach, you can definitely add more spinach and pasta to stretch it if desired.

Also keep in mind that this type of salad can be refrigerating overnight.

Making it such a great recipe for any type of gathering that your going to attend or host.

Prepare this the night before and you can even have a weeks worth of meal preps ready to go for the work week ahead!

If your on a gluten free diet, simply switch out the pasta for a gluten free variety.
