Here in the Northeast we are experiencing a hotter than hot heat wave. It is too hot, even for me. So who wants to cook on day like today? No one. (And that includes grilling, especially grilling.) I give you a super tasty, really easy shrimp salad that is perfect for a day like today; cool and delicious!
Salad Ingredients
1 lb cleaned, cooked shrimp
6 oz heart of palm, cut in bite size pieces
1 ripe avocado, diced
1 Tbs fresh squeezed lemon juice, toss with avocado
3 oz crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup sliced green onions
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Dressing Ingredients
1 1/2 Tbs fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 Tbs olive oil
1/2 tsp greek oregano
1/2 tsp dill
1/2 tsp celery seed
freshly ground pepper to taste
Instructions:
Whisk together dressing ingredients. Place the salad ingredients into a salad bowl, except the feta, pour the dressing over the salad. Toss the salad gently so you don’t mess up the avocado. Sprinkle with the feta cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve, enjoy and stay cool!
