Shrimp salad does not have to be a fattening nightmare: Swap full-fat mayonnaise for fat-free and you're well on your way to a slimmed-down version of a classic.

Ingredients

Uncooked shrimp

1 pound(s), large, peeled and deveined

Fat free mayonnaise

cup(s)

Celery

2 stalk(s), medium, chopped

Red onion

3 tbsp(s), chopped, minced

Fresh parsley

2 tbsp(s), fresh, chopped

Capers

1 tbsp(s), drained

Dijon mustard

2 tsp(s)

Table salt

tsp(s), or to taste

Black pepper

pinch(es), or to taste

Instructions

  1. Boil shrimp in a large pot of rapidly boiling water for about 2 minutes, until bright pink and cooked through. Drain, rinse under cold water and drain again; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, celery, onion, parsley, capers and mustard; mix well. Stir in shrimp; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature or chilled. Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving. (Note: This preparation method also works well with cooked, cubed chicken breast.)
