#### Refreshing Shrimp Salad Recipe
Here's a simple and delicious recipe for a Refreshing Shrimp Salad:
1. **Preparation**: Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add salt and a quartered lemon to the water.
2. **Ingredients**: You'll need the following ingredients:
- Shrimp (preferably fresh, but frozen can also work)
- Celery and red onion for crunch
- Mayonnaise, lemon juice and zest, dill, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper for the dressing
3. **Cook the Shrimp**: Add the shrimp to the boiling water and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until they are cooked through and pink. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. Prepare an ice water bath and transfer the cooked shrimp to it to stop the cooking process.

6. **Serve**: This refreshing shrimp salad can be served in a variety of ways. It can be a great sandwich filling, slipped inside a pita pocket, served between a multigrain roll, or for a healthier option, made into a lettuce wrap. It can also be served on a bed of crisp lettuce with saltine crackers for a light luncheon.
This salad is versatile and can be adjusted based on your preferences. It's a perfect dish for warmer weather and can be prepared in just 20 minutes. Enjoy your Refreshing Shrimp Salad!
