Avocado and Prawn/Shrimp Salad

From a recipe book from Australian Good Food. Please note you more than likely would not use all the dressing in one sitting (depending on how much you like, so it is served on the side to let each person judge for themselves).

This salad makes nice light lunch that is quick, easy and healthy if you easy on the dressing which we did. To round out the meal served with a slice of grilled tomato bread. I made as written and thought the large shrimp and fanning of the avocado made a pretty presentation. Thanks for the post.Reply
