Grilled Seafood Salad

 
  Shrimp and Salmon make the perfect combo in this salad.
 
I’m one of those people who can never make a decision on almost anything. I second guess everything I do wondering if there is a better way of doing it or, if I’m buying something then I’m thinking there may be something out there I haven’t seen that I will like better. So, I try not to shop. Not one of my favorite things to do — lucky for my husband.

https://serenityspaonline.com/vyecibif56 Picking out shrimp is easy. Does one buy 30/40 count, 18/20 count, heads on/off, cooked/uncooked. Now that is easy compared to picking out salmon.

Should I buy farm raised salmon or wild Atlantic salmon. Do I want the whole side so I can make fresh salmon cakes from the left overs or do I want the tail piece which is one of my favorite pieces becauses it gets nice and crispy around the edges. Do I want salmon steaks or better yet do I want steelhead trout which is nice and red like salmon, cheaper by a couple of dollars a pound and has a milder taste than salmon. There’s always canned salmon and even that has options — pink or red.

There’s always smoked salmon which you don’t have to do anything to but open the package, put a little on a cracker with some onion, capers, and boiled egg — instant appetizer.

I sometimes really need someone to make decisions for me. I’ve heard of personal shoppers, maybe there are personal decision maker out there some place. I really needed one when it came to picking out a dress for my daughter’s wedding this fall.

I splurged on the salmon for this salad and bought the wild Atlantic variety. After all I only needed about 1/2 pound for the two of us and that wasn’t going to break the bank. I also decided to add some extra large shrimp to the salad.
Pretty healthy ingredients.
My husband did better on the grilled corn this time. It was perfect.
I added the cilantro the dressing. Next time I’m adding cilantro leaves to the salad also.
Grilling the salmon and shrimp was very quick.
