OH YEAH – TIME TO SHOP TIL YOU DROP!!!!
This month’s challenge was to shop for ANY FIVE ingredients to make your favorite salad! We are to list those ingredients and the prices we pay for them…….
We chose SHRIMP Salad because I happen to be a BIG FAN of shrimpies!
- SHRIMP:
2. MAYONNAISE:
3. CELERY:
4. ONIONS:
5. MACARONI:
EASY PEASY! Boil the macaroni, add whatever amount of the other ingredients you like and WHAMMO – shrimp salad! My Mom sometimes spices it up with a little curry powder!
THANK YOU BACON AND FOZZIEMUM FOR HOSTING THIS FUN EVENT EVERY MONTH!!!
Hugs, SHOPAHOLIC SAM

Gosh – chili peppers would work for the “heat” instead of the curry powder (my Mom loves the Madras HOT curry powder!).

You need both. Curry powder for the healthful tumeric and chili peppers for the healthful capsaicum.

We are not cats but we do love shrimp, and any other kind of fish Mom brings home:) That salad sounds delish, although Mom says she will pass on the curry – she does NOT like curry or cumin at all! But we are sure she could find another good substitute.
Happy Shopping.
