With the perfect amount of spice, this salad knocked my socks off, and will do the same to yours. But in a good way. Blackened Shrimp — may I say — is outta this world amazing. Especially with home-made spices thrown in. Especially the part where you hear the sizzling sounds of shrimp in the pan and start to smell the garlic and spices all mixed together. Praise the salad gods.

And the end result is a healthy, fresh salad bowl. You will love it.
