Shrimp Salad
It’s always serendipitous when a recipe is super delicious as well as super convenient. Luxurious shrimp, crisp romaine lettuce and a trio of chopped veggies (red bell pepper, DOLE® Green Onion and DOLE Carrot) all tossed in a thyme-infused, lemony vinaigrette—that’s delicious. Prewashed DOLE Chopped Romaine, precooked shrimp from the seafood counter and a little leftover dressing for another meal—that’s convenience (times three)! If your shrimp are frozen, no problem: just place them in a colander and run under cold water for a few minutes until thawed.
