A refreshing and flavorful pasta salad featuring shrimp, fresh vegetables, and a tangy dressing.
Cook the macaroni in a large pot of boiling water until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Rinsing the pasta with cold water stops the cooking process and cools it down for the salad.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, parsley, and the juice of the lemon.
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
Combine the cooked pasta, shrimp, celery, green pepper, and green onions in a large serving bowl.
Ensure the shrimp is fully cooked and cooled before adding to the salad.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Toss the salad gently to avoid breaking the pasta.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together for a more cohesive taste.
