Shrimp-And-Orange Salad Recipe

Practice and show off your knife skills by making this main course salad. Zest the orange before segmenting it. To give precooked shrimp a refresh, toss them in a good 1/2 teaspoon salt, then rinse and pat dry. Cutting the shrimp in half symmetrically makes it go further and makes them easier to eat.

Tuscan White Bean Salad with Shrimp

Tuscan White Bean Salad with Shrimp Recipe

Fragrant fresh rosemary and mild cannellini beans are a fantastic duo. You can also mash the two together for crostini or stir them into soup. Add the rosemary to the dressing rather than to the simmering pot of beans so its flavor doesn't overpower. Poaching shrimp in the shells helps keep the shrimp from overcooking.

Shrimp-and-Quinoa Layered Salad Recipe

Postively portable and layered to perfection, jarred salads are the easiest make-ahead lunches for both picnics and workdays. Make these salads up to a day ahead; pack them tightly with the dressing on the bottom, followed by denser ingredients and greens, so they won't get soggy.

Georgia Shrimp and Radish Salad Recipe

Radishes at the farmers' market can seem as varied and abundant as the colors of Easter eggs. Two different varieties give this salad vibrant color, texture, and flavor.
