One Of Those Fast, Filling Recipes

[tarnalberry]

I'm always talking about cooking from scratch, and how it really doesn't have to take a long time. Here's one of those recipes, I made tonight, that takes about 10 minutes to get ready to cook. It's got a lot of fat as it is, but healthy fat, and you can cut the avocado in half if you want.

Avocado Shrimp Salad

Serves 1 (very hungry person)

Ingredients

-----------

1/3 lb cooked salad shrimp

1 small avocado

1 cup pearl or cherry tomatoes

3 tbsp lemon juice

4-5 large red leaf lettuce leaves

Directions

----------

1. Rinse lettuce leaves, and chop into strips, and spin dry in a salad spinner.

2. Chop tomatoes into halves or quarters.

3. Peel and seed the avocado, mashing thoroughly with lemon juice.

4. Arrange lettuce on a large plate, top with tomatoes, then shrimp, then dollop avocado dressing evenly over the plate.
