Shrimp Salad

You’ve probably noticed I’ve been posting a lot of salads. With the summer here they are light and easy to prepare. You can buy the shrimp already cooked or buy them raw and boil them for a few minutes, removing the shell and back vein.
Here is my take on shrimp salad.

Ingredients;
2 LBS shrimp, deveined, shelled, cooked and then chilled
1/2 cup scallion, chopped fine including some of the dark green stem
3 TBLS dill, chopped
1 cup mayo
1 TBLS white wine vinegar
1 cup celery, chopped
1/2 TSP Dijon mustard
Salt & pepper to taste
Parsley for garnish

Directions;
Mix all ingredients except shrimp & parsley. Mix the dressing with chilled shrimp. Sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve over salad greens, in a croissant, stuffed into a cored whole tomato/avocado, or on anything that you like.
