Prawn and Pineapple Salad

Prawn and Pineapple Salad

My suggestion today is a simple yet interesting salad, a combination of prawn with green leaves, pineapple and some yellow cheese+eggs for a more whole taste. Besides that it's quick to make, it also looks spectacular on the festive table and the prawns are absolutely eye-catching.

You can prepare the sauce to your taste - I usually combine mayonnaise with Greek yogurt, but you can always stick to the classic mayo.

Ingredients

Boiled eggs
3 pieces
Fresh shrimps
250 g
a package of already cleaned prawns
Salad greens
100 g
Canned pineapples chunks
150 g
or fresh pineapple
Yellow cheese
200 g
Mayonnaise
150 g
Yoghurt
100 g
Salt
0.5 tsp
Lemon
0.5 pieces

Step by step

Step 1

First, I recommend boiling the prawns - 2-3 minutes in the hot boiling salted water will be enough.

Use a slotted spoon to remove from the water and place onto a plate.
