Shrimp Salad with Lime Vinaigrette

Serves 4
Ingredients:
1 pound large cooked shrimp
1 avocado, in large dice
1 cup fresh or canned corn
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped red onion
½ cup fresh lime juice
¼ cup honey
1 garlic clove, pressed or chopped
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
Combine the shrimp, avocado, corn, cilantro and onion in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, honey, garlic clove, salt, pepper and olive oil and whisk until well combined.
Pour the vinaigrette over the salad (you may want to go a little at a time and taste as you go—I used most, but not quite all of the vinaigrette) and gently toss to combine. Cover and chill for at least an hour before serving. Don’t chill overnight, the whole thing will taste like shrimp and the avocado will fall apart.
