- While pasta cooks, prepare the asparagus: Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound asparagus and cut into 1-inch pieces.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add asparagus and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add 1 pound peeled and deveined shrimp and 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper to the skillet.
- Pour in 1/2 cup creamy Italian dressing (store-bought or homemade).
- Cover the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, or until shrimp are pink and asparagus is crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, asparagus and shrimp mixture, and the remaining 1/4 cup of Italian dressing.
- Add 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and toss gently to combine.
- Serve immediately and garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
- Enjoy!
