Neptune's Seafood Chef Salad image

This versatile & spec occasion salad for the seafood lovers among us is from *The Carnival Experience* cookbook by Peter Leypold (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines) & has a lot to recommend it. It is ideal as a luncheon entree, starter/salad course for an elegant dinner party or part of a cold soup, salad & dessert summer patio party when you want spare yourself cooking in a hot kitchen by serving things easily made ahead. (Times were not specified. I allowed 15-20 min for ingredient prep, but time does not include marinating the salmon under refrigeration & per the recipe assumes the other seafood items are prepared in advance). *Enjoy* !
