Shrimp Waldorf Salad

Spring is here and summer is not far away. Busy divas will be invited to many a soiree. Always the gracious guest, divas will offer to bring something nice. This salad is perfect. I brought it to a graduation party recently where it was a hit.

For divas hosting their own backyard garden parties, this salad can be made ahead of time.

Shrimp Waldorf Salad

1/2 cup mayonnaise (I like light)

1/2 cream

2 squirts lemon juice

1-2 tsp. tarragon (I prefer less)

1-2 tsp. Dijon mustard (I prefer more)

1 large apple, diced (Pink Lady is my favorite)

1 handful red seedless grapes, halved

3-4 stalks celery, diced

2 cans tiny shrimp or 1 lb. fresh shrimp,cooked and chopped

lettuce to line the pretty bowl

chives to sprinkle on top

Mix the mayonnaise, milk, lemon juice, tarragon, and mustard and set aside.
Mix the apples, grapes, celery, and shrimp in a large bowl.
Add the mayonnaise mixture.
Line a pretty bowl with lettuce and fill with the salad.
Sprinkle chives on top.

Make it a meal: Serve with whatever your man is grilling.

Wine: Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay
