Shrimp & Bacon Salad
By Lynn, webmaster of A Natural Food Diet | Natural Food Recipes
The recipe below is my recipe, adapted by me for my all-natural, whole foods diet. Since it represents my own home-cooking, and I'm not a chef, I can't guarantee you'll love it. However, I will say you should give it a try.
Ingredients for Shrimp & Bacon Salad
- 3 oz. cooked shrimp
- 2 - 3 slices of thick-cut nitrite-free bacon, cooked
- Ground cayenne pepper or red pepper
- Dill weed
- 3 cups salad greens
- 3 green onions (scallions) or 1/4 small sweet onion, chopped finely
- 2 tablespoons Newman's Own Olive Oil and Vinegar Dressing or other vinaigrette
Cook your bacon until crispy, drain, and chop into small pieces (a little larger than you would if you were making homemade "bacon bits."
Coat the shrimp lightly with the dill weed and a sprinkle of cayenne, salt and pepper, then toss in the hot pan along with the chopped bacon just until the shrimp gets some color on it. Put your salad greens in a serving dish or salad plate, then place your shrimp and bacon on top. Sprinkle with the onions and drizzle with the olive oil and vinegar dressing. Toss and serve.
