Time 15m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 head romaine lettuce
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1 small maui onion, diced
2 ounces cooked shrimp
1 avocado, diced
1 teaspoon capers
2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
2 stalks green onions, chopped
house vinaigrette
1/4 cup olive oil
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 pinch black pepper
1 hard-boiled egg white, shredded
1 ounce roasted red peppers, diced or 1 ounce pimiento

Steps:

Shred lettuce into fine strips.
Combine and toss in a large bowl with diced tomatoes, onion and bay shrimp.
Add diced avocado.
For dressing: Whisk together ingredients. Olive oil, red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, black pepper, hard boiled egg whites shredded, and 1 ounce roasted red pepper diced or 1 ounce pimentos ( in a pinch I have used a quick dressing of olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon juice, salt, pepper and basil. Pretty much adjust it all to taste. It is a GREAT quick replacement and saves having to hard boil and egg and find pimentos or roasted red peppers.).
Pour over salad and toss lightly.
Sprinkle each portion with capers, crumbled feta and green onion.
