Shrimp and Mixed Green Dinner Salad image

With summer upon us what a wonderful way to enjoy a satisfying meal without heating up the kitchen. Fresh mixed baby greens complimented with luscious ripe strawberries and salad shrimp that is topped off with sugared walnuts and a dressing of your choosing. I served this with a Balsamic Vinaigrette. Serve this with a crusty baguette for a complete summer meal.

1/4 cup walnut halves
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
4 cups fresh baby mixed greens

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 hard-boiled eggs, cooled, peeled

Steps:

  • Toss the walnut halves with water and vinegar; place in a heavy skillet over medium heat and toast until water and vinegar have evaporated; sprinkle with the sugar and warm, stirring frequently until the sugar melts and coats the nuts; set aside to cool.
  • Divide the baby greens between two well chilled salad plates; assemble the salad by distributing each plate with zucchini slices, 6 of the strawberries sliced and feta cheese.
  • Top with shrimp, quarter the boiled eggs and divide evenly on each of the plates. Cut the reserved strawberries from bottom to stem without cutting through stem. Fan out slices and place on top of salad.

MIXED GREENS WITH RASPBERRY WALNUT DRESSING

This is a Robin Miller recipe from the Food Network show Quick Fix Meals with Robin Miller. It is very good if you like sweet dressings. We eat this salad often. If you are like me and do not care for fish, then the walnuts is a great way to get in some Omega-3 Fatty Acids. Enjoy!

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/3 cup raspberry preserves
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
salt & fresh ground pepper
4 cups mixed lettuce greens
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Whisk together raspberry preserves, oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.
  • Arrange lettuce on salad plates. Top lettuce with dressing and walnuts just before serving.
  • My tips: I put all the dressing ingredients in a small tupperware container with a screw on lid and just shake. Much easier and quicker than trying to whisk. Or if you are down to the last little bit of preserves in your jar - just add ingredients to the jar, seal and shake. I also add a couple of tablespoons of water to it as well to kind of thin it out. I usually make it in the morning or the night before and have it ready to go by dinner time. I also sometimes add a sprinkle of feta cheese as well.

RASPBERRY BALSAMIC -WALNUT VINAIGRETTE



Raspberry Balsamic -Walnut Vinaigrette image

I can't think of a better way to dress a spring salad mix of baby greens, or as a delicious accent to some of autumn's stronger-tasting field greens. And it's wonderful on spinach or fruit salads. Add more of either oil if you wish; but remember that a little walnut oil goes a long way. Make it "gifty" by bottling the dressing decoratively and adding a few fresh raspberries to the bottle.
