Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. In a large bowl, fill with half ice and water. Cut up the broccoli while you wait for the water to boil. Carefully, add in broccoli and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. The broccoli will become tender and bright in color. Scoop out broccoli with a slotted spoon quickly and immediately move into the ice water, keeping it in there for for about 30 seconds. Drain in a colander and set aside.
- Follow linked recipe for the roasted asparagus. Set aside.
- Add 2 cups of spring mix to each salad plate/bowl and top with the shrimp, broccoli, asparagus, cabbage, cucumbers, tomato, avocado, and quinoa. Drizzle with lemon dressing and enjoy!
Notes
- Storage: This salad will stay fresh for about 2–3 days in the fridge if stored properly. The shrimp is best eaten within 1–2 days for optimal flavor and texture.
