Brandi Starr
"Very light flavor and low in calories. Originally meant to be a side dish I made some healthy substitutions and added shrimp. I usually serve with asparagus, the entire family loves it."

So I made this hot instead of cold, for dinner, by cooking the shrimp in the dressing in a pan, and it was the best allrecipes meal that I made all week! We loved it and will def make again.

I thought it was okay. I used the rainbow rotini and double the dressing to make it less dry. No issues with the pepper, I thought it tasted fine. Not quite sure if I will make this again.

Perfect served either hot or cold. Farfalle (bow ties) is the perfect pasta for this meal. Serve it with a side salad and its a delicious, attractive dish to serve for company!
