Shrimp with Cucumbers and Mango



This is a really yummy dish that I love to make on a Sunday and take to work on Monday!  It makes me excited for lunchtime!

1/2 pound of cooked shrimp, peeled and those pesky tails removed! I prefer to cut in half or 1/3 to make smaller bite size (Aldi)
1/2 cup of cucumbers, seeds scraped out if really watery and chopped (Aldi)
1/2 mango, chopped (Aldi)
1/4 cup of canned pineapple, drained, and chopped (Aldi) *Make sure it's packed in it's own juice and not syrup! Or you can use fresh, of course!
1/4 of a red pepper, diced (Walmart)
1/4 of a small rd onion, diced (Aldi)
1/2 smallish jalapeno, seeds and membranes removed, diced (Whole Foods)
1/4 cup of parsley leaves, chopped (I used the little containers of the dried stuff) (Publix)
3 tbs olive oil (Trader Joes)
juice from 1 limes (Trader Joes)
1 tsp dijon mustard (Publix)
1/4 tsp garlic powder (Aldi)
salt and pepper to taste

Ready to get this going?? Let's go!

Place shrimp, cucumbers, mango, pineapple, red pepper, onion, jalapeno and parsley in larger bowl.

In a separate smaller bowl, mix all the other ingredients, whisking to incorporate well.

Pour the liquid over the shrimp mixture, cover and place in the fridge for 30 minutes or so to allow everyone to do a meet and greet and get friendly with each other.

I was so dang excited for lunch again ... 

Serve cold and enjoy!!

Looking forward to sharing with some of these GREAT Parties ... go check them out!
