This fresh and bright cold shrimp pasta salad features classic shrimp scampi flavors. Lemon and Dijon mustard brighten the dressing, and asparagus adds a nice crunch. Farfalle pasta works well with this dish, but any medium pasta shape will work.

Changes: Cooked shrimp, regular pasta, no shallots, dried parsley

Reasons: I didn't have those things on hand

Results: Delicious! I'll be having this for lunch tomorrow too. I don't think my changes altered the taste at all, and this is delicious. The sauce is a perfect mix, not too sweet or sour. Definitely going into my regular rotation.

Tips: I did have to cook the asparagus about 10 minutes longer than advised, but that could be an oven problem. I also didn't use a whisk for the sauce, just the spoon I was already using, and it was fine. Saved me a dish.

This salad is easy-peasy and delicious. I always use Gulf shrimp (you can find them frozen in many places).
