PEPPER-SHRIMP-AND-NOODLE SALAD WITH CRUNCHY SPRING VEGETABLES
Cold peanut noodles get a fresh reboot in this veg-forward entrée salad. After mixing thin spaghetti or ramen with a gingery sesame sauce, you fry garlic slivers for a crunchy garnish, then sizzle juicy shrimp in the same pan. Lastly, the salad: an aromatic bouquet of cucumber, radishes, cilantro, and mint.

Steps:
- In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, maple syrup, ginger, and 2 teaspoons water. Whisk in sesame oil and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to combine. Meanwhile, cook noodles in a pot of boiling water according to package instructions. Drain; rinse under cold water. Toss with half of dressing.
- Combine remaining 6 tablespoons vegetable oil with garlic in a nonstick skillet. Cook over medium-low heat, swirling pan occasionally, until garlic is crisp and golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels; season with salt.
- Return skillet to medium-high heat. Pat shrimp dry; season lightly with salt and generously with pepper. Add to skillet and cook, turning once, until pink and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes total. Transfer to paper towels.
- Divide noodles among bowls. Top with cucumber, radishes, herbs, shrimp, and garlic chips. Serve, with remaining dressing alongside.
CRUNCHY ASIAN SALAD WITH SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS
A local restaurant serves a salad similar to this and after a lot of experimenting I came up with a pretty good imitation. I stop on the way home from work at the local Chinese restaurant to pick up the fried wonton strips. Don't let the number of ingredients scare you off as it assembles quickly and easily. You can make the dressing ahead of time and store in the refrigerator.

CRUNCHY COLD SHRIMP SALAD
This is a homemade recipe that I made after trying to duplicate it from a restaurant I visited. I didn't see a recipe similar to it on Allrecipes so I had to submit it. Hope you all enjoy this cold, light, and refreshing shrimp salad as much as I do! Serve over a bed of butter lettuce or romaine lettuce.
