Best West Coast Louis Dressing Recipes
CALIFORNIA LOUIE SHRIMP SALAD
This classic west coast shrimp salad is easily assembled for a terrific lunch, brunch or picnic. Gather your ingredients the day before. Hard boil some eggs, wash the lettuce, and make your dressing. A crusty roll or garlic toast make a nice accompaniment. The dressing makes a great dip for raw veggies too. For a smooth, creamy dressing, skip the celery and sprinkle the chives over the salad.

Steps:
- Make the dressing a day ahead, cover and refrigerate. Hard boil eggs, cool, peel and refrigerate.
- Wash romaine leaves and wrap loosely in paper towels placed in a zip bag to remain crisp. For asparagus spears, snap off the ends. Drop into boiling salted water and cook for 2 minutes depending on their thickness, or until crisp but tender when pierced with a sharp paring knife. Chill in a bowl of ice water immediately to stop the cooking process. Drain and refrigerate.
- The day of serving, chop romaine leaves across for the salad base. Save a few leaf tops for a nice presentation if desired. Place romaine on a plate or in a shallow bowl. Top the greens with sliced avocado, tomatoes, egg quarters, and asparagus spears. Toss the shrimp with a little dressing. Place on top of the salad. Serve extra dressing on the side. If you want to thin the dressing for pouring, use a little milk.

QUICK AND EASY CRABMEAT DRESSING
This is great for a dressing, stuffing, as a bed for Shrimp Scampi, or by itself. You can buy those little crab shells to stuff and broil, mold it into a loaf pan and bake, or use it to dress any main meat entree. This is a recipe from my wife's mother's collection.

Steps:

- Spoon into loaf pan treated with no-stick cooking spray (DO NOT PRESS).
- Brush lightly with butter, sprinkle with paprika, and bake covered in a 375°F oven for 45 minutes.
- Remove covering, add parmesan cheese, and continue to bake at 400°F for 10-15 minutes to allow the top to brown.
