Quick & Delicious Shrimp Delight


Hi Reader,

If you’re looking for a quick, tasty way to enjoy shrimp, this Easy Shrimp Salad is a solid option. It’s one of those recipes that’s simple to throw together but still feels a little special—creamy, seasoned just right, and super versatile.

I was inspired to make this after trying something similar from Costco. Of course, I had to put my own spin on it. Poached shrimp, a creamy mayo-based dressing with a bit of Dijon, Old Bay, and a touch of smoked paprika—that’s all it takes.

It’s great tucked into a sandwich, spooned over a bed of greens, or even just with crackers for a no-fuss lunch or snack.

Here’s the full recipe: Easy Shrimp Salad

Hope you enjoy.

Happy Cooking,
