A few years back, I was asked to bring a salad to a potluck. I didn't want to bring an ordinary dish, so I created this recipe. Everyone was pleased with the light vinegar-and-oil dressing. Ingredients:
1 medium cucumber |
1/2 pound frozen medium cooked shrimp, thawed |
1 can (15 ounces) garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained |
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley |
1/3 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning |
leaf lettuce, optional |
Directions:
1. Slice cucumber in quarters lengthwise; cut into thin pieces and place in a bowl. Add the shrimp, beans and parsley.
2. In a small bowl, combine the oil, vinegar, garlic, salt and lemon-pepper; pour over salad and toss to coat. Chill for at least 1 hour. Serve over lettuce if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
