SHRIMP AND MIXED GREEN DINNER SALAD

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.
• Drizzle each salad with prepared dressing of your choosing and enjoy.

• 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.
