  • Garlic Shrimp Salad

    This is my favourite weekend lunch and is great for stopping cravings. I buy the shrimp frozen in big bags and keep it in the freezer.

    Place 10 to 20 large shrimp in a strainer and run cold water over them until thawed; about 10 or 15 minutes.
    Chop 1/2 small onion
    In a large skillet heat up a couple tablespoons of garlic oil or use the oil of your choice with 1 or 2 cloved of chopped garlic added
    Saute onion until soft
    Peal thawed shrimp, season with salt and pepper, add to oil and onion
    Saute until pink and cooked: just a few minutes
    Finish with a tablespoon of butter, 2 tablespoons of heavy cream, 1 oz shredded cheese; havarti, parmesean, mozza, etc.

    In a bowl shred up 1 cup of lettuce then spoon hot shrimp and sauce over top.

    Variations:

    Add sliced red and green peppers, sliced mushroom, or other veggies to the onions. Cook veggies before adding shrimp
