Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can I use a different type of lettuce?

Yes, you can substitute romaine with spinach or mixed greens.

2. What if I don’t have Greek yogurt?

Sour cream or mayonnaise can be used as substitutes in the dressing.

3. Can I add other vegetables?

Feel free to add bell peppers or radishes for extra crunch.

4. How should I store leftovers?

You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, but store the dressing separately.

Otherwise, it’s best to eat the salad in the same meal to enjoy the best texture and flavor.

5. Can I prepare the shrimp ahead of time?

Yes, you can, but it’s not recommended. Shrimp should be cooked and served right away to avoid chewiness
