How To Make roasted shrimp & mozzarella pasta salad

Step 1

Chop roasted peppers along with garlic from jar. Chop kalamata olives. Set aside pre-heat oven to 400.

Step 2

Toss peeled shrimp on olive oil and season well with salt and pepper. Roast on a cookie sheet until pink and cooked through. Cool shrimp thoroughly.
Step 3

Add all ingredients to cooled pasta including the roasting juices from the shrimp. Season with salt and pepper and chill 1 hour. I usually reserve some italian dressing to refresh the salad and moisten before serving.
