MARGARITA SHRIMP SALAD
This is one of our favorite summer salads- it makes a lovely "light" dinner meal and you don't have to heat up the kitchen! I've also used a combination of red, green and yellow bell peppers to add more color to the salad. Prep time does not include marinating time. Originally from "Savor the Southwest" cookbook.

Steps:
- Shrimp: Combine the cilantro, garlic, chili, tequila, triple sec, lime juice and cumin in a nonreactive bowl.
- Add the shrimp, turn to coat, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Drain the shrimp and reserve the marinade.
- In a small saucepan over high heat, bring the reserved marinade to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until reduced by half.
- Remove from heat, transfer to a small bowl, and cool.
- Whisk in the olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
- Prepare a barbeque grill or preheat a broiler (I prefer to BBQ the shrimp).
- Grill or broil the shrimp until just pink, about 1 minute per side; keep warm.
- Salad: Fill a small skillet with oil to a depth of about 1 inch and place over medium heat.
- When oil is about 375°, fry the tortilla strips in batches until light brown and crisp; drain well on paper towels.
- Sprinkle with chili powder while still warm.
- In a large bowl, mix together the tomato, bell pepper and lettuce.
- Toss with enough of the marinade/oil dressing to coat lightly and divide among 4 large plates or shallow bowls.
- Top with the grilled shrimp and tortilla strips and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Toss shrimp, tequila, orange zest, lime zest and salt in a medium bowl. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Place onion in a small bowl, cover with cold water and some ice; let stand for 10 minutes, or until ready to use.
- Meanwhile, make Creamy Lime-Chile Dressing by whisking all dressing ingredients together.
- Toss romaine, endive, orange segments and the drained onion in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Divide among 4 plates. Toss avocados with lime juice and divide among the salads.
- Drain the shrimp, reserving the marinade. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sauté until pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide among the salads.
- Add the reserved marinade to the pan and bring to a boil, stirring; then spoon over shrimp.
- Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
- Note: dressing will keep covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks - also great as a Caesar salad dressing on romaine with croutons and Parmesan shavings.

MARGARITA SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS
Steps:
- First preheat the grill to medium.
- Add all the marinade ingredients to a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the shrimp and scallops and set the bowl aside. Next, add all the salsa ingredients to a serving bowl and mix well.
- Remove the shrimp and scallops from the marinade. Put a scallop in the "U" (curved part of the shrimp) of the shrimp and skewer, first through the scallop and then through the shrimp. Arrange the skewers on the hot grill and cook approximately 2 1/2 to 3 minutes on 1 side, then turn and grill for 2 1/2 minutes on the other side. When done, remove the skewers from the grill to a serving dish. Drizzle with some extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with pink salt. Serve with the salsa and enjoy!

Steps:
- Make the macaroni salad: Bring 3 quarts of water to boil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the macaroni. Cook al dente according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and return to the Dutch oven. Cool for 5 minutes.
- Add the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, onion powder, sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon of kosher salt to the pasta fold to thoroughly combine. Set aside to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Marinate the margarita shrimp: Add the shrimp and kosher salt to a large bowl. Toss to combine. Pour the margarita mix over top. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes while you prepare the braised greens.
- Make the braised coconut greens: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the garlic and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant and just starting to soften.
- Add ¼ cup of coconut milk plus the sugar and lime juice to the saucepan, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
- Add the kale leaves and snow peas, and season again with salt and pepper. Cover the saucepan and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the leaves are wilted and soft and the snow peas are tender.
- Cook the shrimp: Pour the marinade liquid into a 10-inch skillet, leaving the shrimp in the bowl. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by two-thirds to about ½ cup.
- Add the shrimp and 2 tablespoons of tequila to the skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, for about 3 minutes, until the shrimp are bright pink and opaque.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of tequila plus the cilantro and lime zest. Simmer for about 1 minute, tossing the shrimp to thoroughly coat. Serve immediately alongside the macaroni salad and braised greens.
- Just before serving, fold in the carrots, scallions, and buttermilk into the cooled macaroni salad. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut milk to the greens and garnish with toasted coconut flakes.
- Enjoy!
SHRIMP SALAD
Using plenty of lemon - both the zest and juice - is the secret to this tangy, creamy shrimp salad. If you're using this to make sandwiches, chop the shrimp into pieces before adding them to the dressing. You can also leave the shrimp whole for an elegant salad, served with lettuce, avocado, and other vegetables if you like. If you're starting with precooked shrimp, you can skip the first step entirely.

Steps:
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a simmer. Slice one of the lemons and add to the pot, along with the shrimp. Simmer, never letting the water boil if you can help it, until the shrimp turn opaque, 2 to 4 minutes, depending on their size. Drain well, and discard the lemon slices. If you like, you can chop the cooked shrimp into smaller pieces.
- Grate the zest from the remaining lemon into a large bowl. Halve the naked lemon and squeeze the juice into the bowl. Whisk in the mayonnaise and oil.
- Add the celery, onion, herbs and cooked shrimp, tossing to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to eat. Serve with lettuce and avocado, if you like.
