Shrimp are the star of this delightful serving of mixed greens since I've been desiring them for quite a long time and had a major pack in the cooler to go through. I defrosted then marinated them in a basic yet delicious blend of additional virgin olive oil, nectar, cilantro, lime juice, and bean stew powder to give them a tart bean stew sweet-taste.
Reward? A similar dressing used to marinate the shrimp is prepared with the serving of mixed greens sparing heaps of time. That is to say, you don't utilize the marinade as the dressing since, net, rather the tart dressing is separated into equal parts taking out two targets with one shot. I'll take it!
Combined with fresh grape tomatoes, crisp lettuces, rich avocado, and crunchy tortilla chips, this serving of mixed greens is going to destroy all other taco plates of mixed greens. The crunch, the freshness, the flavor – ALL THE THINGS! However, particularly that dressing, man, I LOVED it!
