This is a quick, easy and festive salad or appetizer. I like to serve it with triangles of whole wheat pita bread to scoop up the dressing and call it dinner.

Just before serving, take the mushrooms out of the fridge and broil, bake or boil the shrimp to your liking.
Add the shrimp to the mushroom mix, sprinkle lightly with sea salt, garnish with the parsley, drizzle with a little more olive oil and toss.
