How To Make A Delicious Shrimp Salad In 5 Minutes

Shrimp Salad Divan is a simple, low-carb dish that can almost literally be “thrown together.” In fact, that’s what I did and now it is one of my favorite lunches.
Shrimp Salad Divan Recipe #lowcarb
The story behind this shrimp salad is that I had run out of  lime. If there had been lime on hand, that would have been my dressing. Since it was not, I got creative. Mayonnaise, lemon juice and curry powder create the “divan” touch to this salad and it tastes so good! Crisp, tasty, low carbohydrate. Perfect!

Classic Shrimp Cocktail

Ever get bored with your own menu?  When that happens to me, I change it up and serve shrimp. It is so easy to just pull some frozen shrimp from the freezer and make a nice salad. {Shrimp Avocado Lime Salad is so delightfully good that I just shared my recipe on It’s A Keeper.} 

Sometimes, though, I lack the incentive to even cut up veggies. When I’m in that kind of lazy mood, the simplest way for me to enjoy shrimp is to make a classic shrimp cocktail.  All you do is thaw some shrimp and whip up a quick cocktail sauce. Voila! Lunch!

Easy shrimp salad recipe! #lowcarbdiet #lowcarb #recipes #salads #shrimp Ducks 'n a Row

Ever get bored with your food? I did. Oh, I love my low carb diet. I feel better eating this way. I’m losing weight, too. And I really love the food…but I lacked imagination. Same old, same old.

Lunchtime had arrived and I was out of ideas. I thought about making a yummy chicken walnut salad,  but then I remembered I had some frozen shrimp in the freezer. Yipee, something new! This simple shrimp salad tasted absolutely delicious.  I prettied things up a bit by serving it on some lettuce leaves, with avocado slices on the side. Another simple solution for everyday problems. I was one happy lady! If you like shrimp, you’ve got to try this.

Shrimp Salad Recipe

1 cup cut up jumbo or medium shrimp
1/8 cup mayonnaise
1/4 tsp grated onion (optional)
2 T finely chopped celery
1 tsp Lemon juice
Sliced avocado (optional)

Lettuce leaves (optional)

  • Place the frozen shrimp in a bowl of very warm water till it thaws, about 10 minutes.
  • Rinse in cold water.
  • Pull off the tails, discarding them.
  • Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel.
  • Snip the shrimp into bite-sized pieces, using cooking scissors.
  • Combine with mayonnaise, celery, onion and lemon juice.
Serve on lettuce. Enjoy!
