When eating salad, I am always amazed by the colors of vegetables available. You can truly create a rainbow of colors. This salad has spinach, romaine lettuce, mushrooms, red onion, tomato, red, yellow, and orange bell pepper. For the centerpiece, I have 16/20 size shrimp sauteed in garlic, olive oil, and lemon pepper. For the vegetarians out there, just drop the shrimp and come up with your own protein alternative.

You can use the dressing of your choosing. I prefer a combination of olive oil and lemon.

Remember to gather your ingredients.

Chop your vegetables to the size and shape of your liking.

Saute your Shrimp about six minutes. Cook until a light pink.

One of my favorite Japanese foods is sashimi. Think of it as sushi without the rice. Japanese food is more than a way to fill one’s stomach. It is art and balance too. If you are in Houston,  the place to shop for Japanese groceries is Nippan Daido. You can learn to create your own Japanese food for 75% less than restaurant prices. Which is a great thing for those of us who do not have deep pockets.

The following plate I put together  has:

Amaebi- Sweet Shrimp, Tai- Red Snapper, Saki-Salmon, Maguro-Tuna, Saba-Mackeral, Tako-Octopus, Ika-Cuttlefish, Fried Quail Egg, Radish, Carrot, Cucumber, and Avocado.
