Summer Pasta Salad with Shrimp - Everyday Food with Sarah Carey
When you have beautiful and seasonal ingredients on hand, turning out a delicious meal is so simple. That's the main idea behind today's squash-, spinach-, and shrimp-filled pasta salad. Chopped olives and a few strips of lemon zest add briny and bright flavors to this two-step dinner. Serve it while the pasta and shrimp are still warm, or allow them to come to room temperature and pack the entree up for lunch. Either way, this vibrant meal is one you need to try!
Sarah's Tip of the Day:
Make this dish vegetarian by using firm tofu, cut into cubes and cooked in a nonstick pan, in place of shrimp.

Roasted cauliflower salad with lemon herb dressing
Nutty, quinoa grains mixed with oven roasted cauliflower, then tossed with fruit and nuts and finished with a lemon herb dressing. Roasted cauliflower is one of my most favourite healthy foods and it fits in so well here with the crunchy quinoa and zesty lemon dressing
Chickpea Rotini With Kale Pesto
I love pasta, but regular pasta doesn't my life style change justice. So, I get smart about it by using plant based nutritious pastas, and cook it even better than traditional pasta so that I don't miss a thing!
