Shrimp and Avocado Salad image

This Mexican shrimp cocktail's bright, fresh flavors and colors entice even my little ones. I like to serve it alongside a scoop of lime-cilantro rice for a light meal. -Carly Terrell, Granbury, Texas

Not a fan of the vinaigrette. I'll use a different recipe next time.

5 stars for the vinaigrette alone. The sweetness from the orange goes so well with the tang from the red wine.

Who doesn't love avocados and shrimps? And the red from the paprika adds a nice touch to an otherwise flawless dish.

Followed the recipe to a T. Will definitely make it again! :)

Creamy avocados, succulent shrimps, and delicious vinaigrette -- what a combination! This dish doesn't just taste amazing, it looks really beautiful too.

Not too bad for a quick lunch. I skipped the arugula and used butter instead of the oil. Simple and easy.

This is my first time making this dish and it's a total hit! I love the fresh, light taste of the avocados and that beautiful bright orange color from the shrimps. And that tangy vinaigrette is just heaven in a bottle.
