Ingredients
2 lbs. shrimp, cooked and peeled
4 medium apples, (Granny Smith, unpeeled and cubed)
4 ripe avocados
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup ketchup
6 drops of hot sauce
2 Tbsp. cognac
2 Tbsp. dry sherry
Preparation
Cut shrimp into 2 to 3 pieces. Set aside in mixing bowl. Slice avocado in half, discard the pit. Scoop out avocado meat with a spoon (you will use the shell for serving). Cube avocado meat and add apples and avocado to the shrimp in mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, blend remaining ingredients to make a dressing.
Add this dressing to the shrimp mixture and toss to coat evenly. Spoon salad mixture into avocado shells. Place the shells on a bed of lettuce before serving.
For a fun presentation, put lettuce and salad into martini glasses.
OR - Keep shrimp whole and slice the avocado. Mix all ingredients together except avocado and retain a small amount of the dressing. Place mixture on a bed of lettuce, top with avocado and drizzle with any remaining dressing.
Serves 8
Enjoy!
