Goat Cheese Shrimp Primavera Pasta

Goat Cheese Shrimp Primavera Pasta balances sweet shrimp with briny capers and marinated artichokes in a bright, tomato-forward sauce. Crumbles of goat cheese melt into the warm whole-wheat rotini, adding a creamy tang that ties everything together. It’s a lively weeknight dinner that feels special enough for casual entertaining or a quick date-night meal.
