Ingredients

  • 1 box Tri-color Rotini
  • 1 Onion Chopped
  • 2 stalks Celery Diced
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • 8 oz Zesty Italian Salad Dressing Lite
  • 1 lb Miniature Shrimp

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta in salted water according to the package directions.  Drain and allow to cool while chopping the onion and celery.

  2. Add the chopped onion and celery and the pepper. Stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate.

  3. When the pasta has cooled, add the Zesty Italian dressing and the shrimp. Mix to incorporate all of the ingredients. Cover and store in the refrigerator.

Recipe Notes

I use about a half bottle of the Lite or non-fat Zesty Italian dressing. I buy the frozen cocktail shrimp and defrost overnight in the refrigerator. Check for seasonings after the salad dressing is added. I don’t usually need to add salt since the pasta was cooked in salted water.  I estimate 5 WW points for a 3/4 cup serving.
