Shrimp Salad with Hot Honey Avocado Dressing

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min. YIELD: 8 servings.
This loaded main-dish salad uses avocado in place of oil in the dressing, with hot honey for a kick. Sometimes I like to add sliced black olives and green onions, but feel free to mix and match your favorite toppings to make this salad your own. —Jeanne Holt, Mendota Heights, Minnesota
