Favorite Shrimp Salad


Shrimp, coated in a Dijon dressing and tossed with fresh tarragon, parsley, celery, and red onions makes the Favorite Shrimp Salad. The snap of the shrimp, the crunch of the vegetables, the tang of the dressing and herbs complement each other so well that it's hard to stop eating it. I confess that I like to eat this salad right from the bowl while my husband and sons like the salad tucked in a beautiful piece of bread. Whichever way you enjoy this one is a winner.
