Shrimp cocktail salad is not only a quick and easy salad, but it also looks beautiful. It is good as a starter or your dinner and goes well with white wine too. Actually, I was thinking of making it with avocado, but unfortunately our avocado didn’t ripe well. So I just made it with some vegetables that we had.
