Shrimp and Fresh Herb Salad

This is a quick and easy salad to put together, especially on long, hot summer days, when the last thing you want to do is cook. Buy a clamshell package of Fresh Herb Salad, slice some salad veggies and add ready-cooked shrimp meat. Spinach or Arugula are good alternatives to the herb salad.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 5 ounce package of fresh herb salad
• 4 ounces mushrooms, sliced
• 6 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 small red onion, sliced
• 1 small red bell pepper, sliced
• 12 ounces cooked shrimp meat
• 4 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 1/2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Rinse and dry salad leaves and divide among four plates. Add sliced mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, red onion and pepper strips. Spoon equal amounts of shrimp meat on top of salad.

For the vinaigrette, whisk vinegar, lemon juice and mustard together and whisk in olive oil. Or, combine vinegar, lemon juice, mustard and oil in a screw-top jar and shake vigorously. Drizzle over salad.

Serves 4.
