Layered Fruit
and Shrimp Salad
Chef John Folse & Company
Prep Time: 1 Hour
Serves: 10
“Fruit is not just for dessert anymore! With its wide range of colors
and
textures, nothing makes a more beautiful entrée salad than
layers of fresh
or canned fruit. Why not create an interesting and
unique summer salad by
combining colorful, healthful fruit with
fresh shrimp or other seafood?”
2 cups watermelon balls
2 cups cantaloupe balls
2 cups honeydew balls
2 cups sliced peaches
2 cups sliced pears
2 cups quartered orange sections
2 cups sliced plums
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup fresh strawberries
1 cup cubed pineapple
2 dozen (21-25) count boiled shrimp
2 cups crawfish tails
1 recipe Fruity Yogurt Dressing (recipe follows)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
In a large glass serving bowl, layer fruit by alternating
stratas of color.
Once all the fruit has been layered, line shrimp and crawfish in a
decorative pattern around the edge of the bowl. Top with fruity yogurt
dressing, and
toss the mixture to blend the dressing into the fruit. Sprinkle with pecans
and serve immediately.
