Salad Base

Shrimp and Vegetables

Beans and Cheese

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Salad Base

  1. 1

    Wash and Chop Lettuce

    Rinse and dry the lettuce leaves. Chop them into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare Tomatoes

    Dice the fresh tomatoes and set aside for later use as a topping.

Cook the Shrimp and Vegetables

  1. 3

    Grill Shrimp

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss shrimp with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are opaque and cooked through.

  2. 4

    Grill Tomatoes and Mushrooms

    Slice the tomatoes for grilling. Clean and slice the mushrooms. Brush them lightly with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill alongside the shrimp for about 4-5 minutes or until tender and slightly charred.

Assemble the Salad

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In the large bowl with chopped lettuce, add the grilled shrimp, grilled tomatoes, and grilled mushrooms. Stir in the drained black beans.

  2. 6

    Add Cheese and Toppings

    Pour the cheese dip over the salad, then sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Add diced fresh tomatoes and a dollop of sour cream.
