I completely forgot I haven’t shared this shrimp salad! Motherhood, ahem, toddlerhood has this effect on me.

On the one hand, it has made me super productive. My past overthinking self would’ve never, ever had the time to write a blog. Now that I don’t have time to even smile, I write half-written posts right here that are autocorrected in the worst possible way and I’m fine with it. Good enough. When things don’t need to be perfect, there are suddenly more hours in the day.

On the other hand, I forget things. Many things. Not just meals on the stove that almost burn the house down, no no. I also forget recipes like this one.

I made this salad with avocado and shrimp a long time ago, when I was doing the keto diet. Then put it in a folder somewhere on my desktop and it completely flew out of my mind. I found it again by accident last week when I was scrolling through pictures and, since I did have some frozen shrimp at home – decided to make it again.

This time I used tomatoes and not roasted peppers and since I didn’t have any broccoli, I added some grilled zucchini. Turned out super delicious and even though I’m not eating low carb anymore, I ate it on its very own, without bread, rice or quinoa and it was so satisfying and just good.

Avocado Shrimp Salad Ingredients

Shrimp. I did use some sort of giant shrimp in here, but size really doesn’t matter. The important thing is that the shrimp is peeled and deveined.

Roasted Vegetables. As you can see in the images I used broccoli and roasted peppers, but if they’re not in season when you read this or you don’t like these vegetables, you can easily use any type of roasted vegetables.

Fresh vegetables. Use lettuce, arugula or spinach as the base, add in some chopped cabbage, basil and avocado. I also suggest some tomato, it went really well when I made it last time.

Olives. Any type of olives would work well here – I used green ones, but Kalamata will do just as well.

Greek yogurt and garlic. Okay, I made the same dressing I used for this salad recipe, because it’s easy and I really like the taste.

Meal Prep Option

If you’d like to eat this shrimp bowl for the rest of week, you’ll probably need to double the recipe. To keep it fresh longer, keep ingredients in separate compartments – dressing, shrimp and vegetables.

Also, add avocado and tomato (if using) right before serving, as these can spoil faster. Alternatively, you can use whole cherry tomatoes and not chopped tomatoes in the salad.
