Ingredients

2 cups cooked whole-wheat blend pasta (like Barilla* Plus Rotini)

1 cup frozen cooked shrimp, lightly thawed (if the tail is on, remove tail)

3 tablespoons prepared pesto (like Armanino frozen pesto), or your own preparation

2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese

1/8 cup finely chopped red bell pepper or 1 medium tomato, chopped

* I prefer Barilla because it NEVER gets mushy.

NOTE: Pre-cooking time for pasta is included in prep time.

Directions

In medium, microwave-safe bowl, toss cooked pasta, shrimp, and pesto together.

Warm briefly in the microwave for a minute or two if needed.

If the pasta is hot, it will usually warm the pesto and shrimp quite a bit.

Top with shredded Parmesan and chopped red bell pepper or tomato and serve.
