Crunchy Cold Shrimp Salad image

This is a homemade recipe that I made after trying to duplicate it from a restaurant I visited. I didn't see a recipe similar to it on Allrecipes so I had to submit it. Hope you all enjoy this cold, light, and refreshing shrimp salad as much as I do! Serve over a bed of butter lettuce or romaine lettuce.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

⅓ (16 ounce) package seashell pasta
1 pound cooked shrimp, chilled

2 tablespoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®), or more to taste
