Thai Cucumber Shrimp Salad
I made this recently for my hubby and I. It is so light and crunchy! A really good, healthy, summery, kind of meal. I have been on a bit of a health kick lately. I think being home a lot and cooking and eating all the things started making me feel a bit gross and when I pulled out those summer shorts...Yowza. What happened?? So, it was time for a shift! I started a little health and fitness challenge. I am constantly finding fun recipes for our family. I will be making this again for sure.
Salad Ingredients:
1 lb med. cooked shrimp
2 cucumbers sliced
1/2 cup of cilantro
2 green onions sliced
1 chopped green bell pepper
Dressing Ingredients:
3 minced garlic cloves
1/2 chopped Serrano chilli pepper
1/4 cup of lime juice
1/4 cup of rice wine vinegar
1 tbs sesame oil
2 tsp of fish sauce (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp sesame seeds
8 mint leaves chopped
Throw all the salad ingredients in a cute bowl, must be cute.
Mix dressing ingredients well and pour over salad.
I left the fish sauce out since my hubby is not a fan, but I added a little to mine cause I love it, and it was delish!!!! Either way, this salad is my new favorite!
Let me know if you try it,
