Shrimp and Avocado Salad
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked salad shrimp (or larger shrimp, chopped)
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons cocktail sauce
- salt to taste
- 2 avocados, halved lengthwise and pitted
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Bibb lettuce leaves
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Directions
In a bowl, mix the chives, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and cocktail sauce. Stir in shrimp and season with salt to taste (I don't usually add any salt). Mound the shrimp mixture into avocado halves, and sprinkle with lemon juice. Place avocado halves on Bibb (or Boston) lettuce leaves that have been dusted with paprika.
I didn't have any lettuce leaves on hand yesterday, so I sprinkled the filled avocados with paprika. WAY better this way!
I have one kid who doesn't like shrimp and one kid who doesn't like avocado. So, I cooked two servings of spaghetti and the shrimp hater had hers with butter and avocado (?!) and the other tossed hers with shrimp heated with Ghee.
This is a nice snack, side dish, or light lunch.
Enjoy!
