This is a great salad, quick, easy, no dressing required, with protein in the shrimp and cheese. I don't like gorgonzola, or feta, used what I had which was a mixed shredded cheese, didn't have any radish sprouts, and used bacon. I added a little sliced red pepper to the shrimp for extra color. The dish was tasty, filling and a perfect lunch or supper dish.
