  • Choose a crisp, sweet apple for the best flavor.
  • Potatoes should be cooked before adding them to the salad.

  • Substitute the shrimp for diced chicken: This substitution is beneficial for those who prefer poultry over seafood, or for those who may not have access to shrimp.
  • Substitute the oil for a plant-based alternative such as olive oil: This substitution is beneficial for those who prefer plant-based diets, as olive oil is a healthier alternative to oil and contains beneficial fatty acids.

Tuna & Potato Salad Replace the shrimp with 8 ounces of canned tuna, drained. Replace the diced apple with 1/2 cup of diced celery and increase the amount of parsley to 2 tablespoons.



Crispy Baked Fries: Crispy Baked Fries are the perfect accompaniment to this flavorful shrimp salad.
