Overall, I thought this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it didn't wow me either.

I found the shrimp to be a bit overcooked. Next time I'll cook it for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with a different salsa.

This shrimp pasta salad was a hit at my last potluck! The combination of sweet fruit salsa and savory shrimp was unexpected but delightful. I'll definitely be making this again.
