For years, this was my “go-to” salad to take to a pot luck. Everybody loves it, and I’m always asked for the recipe, so I thought I’d share it here. Shhhhhh! Don’t tell anyone . . . it’s a Weight-Watchers recipe, so you can enjoy a serving of this virtually guilt-free!
Shrimp & Orzo Salad
(makes four 230 calorie servings)
Ingredients:
½ pound shelled and de-veined small cooked shrimp
4 oz. orzo pasta cooked according to package directions
1 cup thawed frozen whole kernel corn (or canned works too)
½ cup diced red bell pepper
¼ cup chopped scallion
2 tbsp each chopped fresh dill, lemon juice and red wine vinegar
1 tbsp Dijon style mustard
Directions:
Combine first five ingredients in a bowl. Add remaining ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Pour over shrimp mixture and toss to coat. Looks pretty served in lettuce cups. Salt and pepper to taste
Thanks Brenda I will have to let Nina make it soon.
