Shrimp & Feta Summer Pasta Salad

This light and lemony pasta salad is bursting with freshness! Juicy tomatoes and fresh herbs make it taste like summer in a bowl. The shrimp adds a nice chew and a touch of sweetness to balance out the tangy bits of feta and the acidity of the vinaigrette. Our tip: use pre-cooked shrimp and a store-bought lemon vinaigrette to make everything easy-breezy — the whole thing comes together in about 30 minutes!
