Quick and Easy Recipes – (Baby) Shrimp Salad Recipe

Quick and easy recipes are great for those who don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen cooking. Shrimp salad is one such recipe. It takes less than twenty minutes to make and is very delicious. Shrimp salad makes a great appetizer and you can enjoy it as a side dish as well.

I make shrimp salad time and again and always enjoy it. Sometimes I eat it with toast. Sometimes I eat it by itself. Either way it always tastes great. Below you will find a shrimp salad recipe that I use when I want to enjoy such fresh shrimp salad.

• Small bag of cooked (frozen) baby shrimp
• Small white onion
• Celery Stalk (1)
• Salt
• Ground Pepper
• Mayonnaise
• Lemon
• Dried Parsley Flakes

Step 1: Place the frozen cooked baby shrimp into a colander and thaw under running water for a few minutes. Once the shrimp are thawed, rinse them and place them into a bowl. (You can use medium or large shrimp too but then you will need to cut them into smaller pieces. With baby shrimp you don't need to cut the shrimp as they are already small in size. You can even use fresh shrimp but you will need to boil it first since it is raw.)

Step 2: Take one stalk of celery, wash it, and cut into little cubes. Then take a small white onion, peel of the skin, and cut into little cubes as well. Add the cut celery and white onion into the bowl with the shrimp.

Step 3: Add a pinch of salt and ground pepper. (How much you add depends on your preference). Then wash a fresh lemon, cut in half and squeeze a little bit of the juice into the salad bowl. Finally, add a few table spoons of mayonnaise and stir.

Step 4: Sprinkle the shrimp salad with some dried parsley flakes, stir, and let sit for a few minutes. Then serve with some crackers or toast and enjoy.
