Do you ever find that to be true for you?

This is a summer salad perfect for those midweek cravings for something light yet still filling.
And it only takes 20 minutes to make, if that.
You just cook shrimp your favorite way, either saute or grill.

The flavors play so well together.
When we cook shrimp, I’ve taken to brining them first.
It really makes such a difference.
Elise Bauer
Brined shrimp are juicier and hold onto more of their flavor.
It does take an extra half hour, but worth it if you have the time!
An extra step, but worth it if you have the time!

Add one cup of ice and the shrimp.
After 30 minutes (time it!)
remove the shrimp and give them a quick rinse.
Add 2 Tbsp of olive oil to coat the pan.
(you could also grill the shrimp if you prefer.)
When the shrimp are barely cooked through, remove from the pan and set aside to cool.
Fold in the shrimp.
Gently fold the dressing into the salad and serve!
