Paella Salad image

This came from one of the church-member books, years ago, attributed to Gourmet by the Bay in Virginia Beach. I have done this more simply by using frozen cooked shrimp and packaged chicken short cuts. It makes a pretty presentation and holds up well for left-overs

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler paella salad recipe next time.

This salad is the perfect summer dish! It's light and refreshing, and the flavors are so bright and cheerful.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used store-bought paella seasoning. Next time I'll make my own.
