Step 1: Prepare the Lime Dressing

• In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, honey, minced garlic (if using), salt, and pepper.

• Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 2: Prep the Ingredients

• Dice the avocado and tomato into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3: Toss the Salad

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, red onion, tomato, and avocado.
• Drizzle the lime dressing over the mixture and gently toss to coat evenly.
• Be careful when stirring to keep the avocado from mashing too much.

• Serve immediately or let the salad chill for 10–15 minutes to enhance the flavors.

Serving Suggestions

• Enjoy as a standalone salad for a light meal.
• Serve over lettuce wraps or mixed greens for extra crunch.
• Pair with tortilla chips or crusty bread for a fun appetizer.

Storage Tips

• Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
• If storing, squeeze extra lime juice over the avocado to prevent browning.
