On New Year’s Eve, we had some friends over and asked everyone to bring a savory dish to share.
This recipe was a huge winner and is so easy and adaptable. If you want it to be Vegan as well, simply omit the shrimp.
Happy New Year 2014!
Ingredients:
Raw and deveined shrimp
olives
grape tomatoes, halved
carrots, sliced
roasted red peppers
sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil
olive oil
fresh basil or parsley
Directions:
1. Boil shrimp in salted water, and set aside in cold ice water.
2. Meanwhile, toss together the olives, grape tomatoes, carrots, roasted red peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes in a large bowl.
3. Drain shrimp and add into the vegetables, drizzle with olive oil and top with fresh basil or parsley.
Looks like someone has a resolution to grab food while being photographed (it looks like he is touching the shrimp but he is not nearly as close nor is he on a table).
