Steps:
- Shred lettuce into fine strips.
- Combine and toss in a large bowl with diced tomatoes, onion and bay shrimp.
- Add diced avocado.
- For dressing: Whisk together ingredients. Olive oil, red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, black pepper, hard boiled egg whites shredded, and 1 ounce roasted red pepper diced or 1 ounce pimentos ( in a pinch I have used a quick dressing of olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon juice, salt, pepper and basil. Pretty much adjust it all to taste. It is a GREAT quick replacement and saves having to hard boil and egg and find pimentos or roasted red peppers.).
- Pour over salad and toss lightly.
- Sprinkle each portion with capers, crumbled feta and green onion.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your salad. Choose fruits and vegetables that are at their peak ripeness for the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overcrowd the salad: When adding ingredients to your salad, be careful not to overcrowd it. This will make it difficult to toss and evenly distribute the dressing.
- Use a light hand with the dressing: Too much dressing can overwhelm the other flavors in your salad. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Toss the salad gently: When tossing your salad, be gentle to avoid bruising the ingredients. Use a light touch and toss just until the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Serve immediately: Salads are best enjoyed immediately after they are made. This is especially true for salads that contain delicate ingredients, such as greens or berries.
Conclusion:
The Maui Wowie Salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is packed with fresh fruits and vegetables, and the creamy dressing adds a touch of richness. This salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
