Chop-Chop Shrimp Salad.

Lunch salads are a great alternative to a sandwich.

I like to go uber with the ingredients. Use endive and micro greens. Fruit like melon, grapes and heirloom cherry tomatoes. Crumble some cheese like bleu or feta.
Simple home made dressing foundation is 3 parts oil to 1 part any flavour vinegar in a shaker jar. I then add some sea salt, fresh ground white pepper, tsp. of dijon mustard, tsp. raw honey and for my chop salad flavourings today, some fresh squeezed lemon lime juice and a tsp. of mayonnaise. Shake well until it becomes a nice and creamy mixture. Taste and adjust any flavorings. Use flavoured reduced and aged balsamic or juice extracts to add intense flavours.
For the salad I have some fresh peeled mateine salad shrimp, a nice sliced avocado, boiled egg sections, crisp cucumber slices, celery and radish slices, a few firm beefsteak tomato wedges tossed with crisp iceberg lettuce. This salad is also yummy with a blue cheese or green goddess dressing.
Dig in!
Life is to short to eat mediocre food
