Summertime Salads are one of the best parts of Summer!
Cooking....however is not!
Here is a quick tip that lets you have your Shrimp Salad....
but....not have to cook it!
(well except for a little boiling of water)
TAH DAH....The Trick!
Who doesn't love CostCo?
They have a pretty good shrimp salad in the deli section. Just enough dressing....nice big shrimp! But at around $13 for the container...it wouldn't be a good economic choice for a entertaining.
That took all of 10 minutes.....and a skill level of zip....but the salad is restaurant quality!
I do this with the Chicken Salad from CostCo too....by adding some additional ingredients like nuts or grapes the salad goes further (and tastes better too)!
I just read this The I Love Trader Joe'sCookbook written by Cherie Mercer Twohy.....
She takes Trader Joe ingredients and does sort of the same thing as the shrimp salad!
I found at least 20 recipes that I took screen shots of on my iPad!
Somebody should do a cookbook like this about CostCo!!
I would love to hear about your favorite shortcuts using deli food or other "almost homemade" recipes!
Have a Great Day!

The looks delicious! I add broccoli to costco's chicken Alfredo and it goes much further too. I would love to see that cookbook :-)
