  • black pepper to taste, Kosher

For the Salad:

  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil

  • salt to taste, Kosher

  • 1 cup celery finely diced

Notes

  • Use raw shrimp instead of cooked shrimp. The texture and flavor will be so much better.
  • You may use any other oil instead of olive oil.
  • Peas: if you don't like peas, use other veggies of choice. You may also skip it completely.
  • Yogurt: I used plain yogurt instead of mayonnaise. Sour cream will also work. For a non-dairy option, you can use dairy-free yogurt.
  • It is best to use fresh garlic cloves instead of garlic powder.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days
