Shrimp Pasta Primavera

Menu: Shrimp Pasta Primavera, Strawberries, Store-Bought French Bread (I was feeling lazy)

Pasta:
8 oz. rotini pasta
1/2 c. Italian Dressing (I use Wishbone)
1/2 - 1 lb. medium shrimp
1 large red bell pepper, sliced (I used green this time)
1 c. matchstick carrots (just sliced very thinly)
1 c. fresh sugar snap peas
Parmesan Cheese

Cook pasta. Meanwhile, heat dressing in large nonstick skillet. Add shrimp and veggies and cook for about 4 minutes. Drain pasta and toss with shripm mixture. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

I love this dish - it is so yummy and fresh tasting. We eat it a lot during the spring and summer time.
NOTE: I used Barilla's whole grain pasta and we couldn't even tell the difference. Plus it isn't that much more than the regular pasta.
