Quick Shrimp Cobb Salad
The possibilities with fresh vegetable salads are endless.
This recipe is easy peasy and healthy. It is great for a light dinner, or for a ladies luncheon kind of a thing.
Quick Shrimp Cobb Salad (for two):
Ingredients:
- 1 head of washed chopped Romaine Lettuce
- Lots o’ matchstick carrots or diced/sliced carrots
- 1 avocado diced
- 4 pieces of Bacon cooked and crumbled/chopped
- 2/3-3/4 lb. peeled deveined shrimp
- Salt, pepper, and paprika
Directions:
1. Lay a bed of greens on a plate and top with the veggies and bacon.
2. In a pan that has heated on medium high, add a couple turns of olive oil to the pan. Allow to heat for 10 seconds or so, and then add the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp is done and they form ‘C’ shapes. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and paprika.
3. Scatter the salad with the shrimp.
4. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing and olive oil. No dressing is required. The lemon and olive oil mixed around with the creamy avocado makes its own ‘dressing.’

Erica’s Brown Bag Lunch
Last summer my husband purchased Rosie, a used fishing boat. Rosie is used mostly for fishing purposes, but she can get you from Point A to Point B on Lake Travis just fine. One of my favorite weekend activities is when we go and anchor Rosie in the lake and have lunch, drinks, and bob around in the water. Last summer, doing so was a bit of a daunting task. I didn’t know how to pack a simple lunch , so I was always making big complicated salads and bringing containers filled with olive oil. I was sure there was a simpler but tasty lunch option for me. Well there is, my Apple and Herb Turkey Sandwich is my ‘go to’ when I’m on the go. (See Applegate link in ‘My Pantry’) I pair it with some Good Health Olive Oil Potato Chips (Popchips are awesome too. See ‘My Pantry’), fruit, and maybe even some of my homemade allergy-free baked gods, like my Chocolate Chip Cookies I’m soon to share, and I’m good to go! I hope this short video inspires you to create your own Brown Bag Lunch!
