This satisfying salad can be made with chicken as well. The whole wheat pasta provides some of the fiber needed in the diverticulosis phase.

    Tried this recipe last night and everyone loved it. Will make it again, and next time I may substitute chicken for shrimp.

    But are the raw tomatoes with seeds OK for your gut?
