Garlic Prawns, Smoked Salmon and Avocado Salad




I am such a fan of 10-15 mins preparation meals. The best way to do it seems to be making meal plans and making sure I have quick ingredients on hand. Prawns and Salmon are such lovely protein, and easy to prepare. At times, we would purchase shelled prawns, or just shell them immediately when we come home. Frying prawns in some oil, garlic, chill, and combine it with smoked salmon and salad. A meal done. It's so simple, that I was actually thinking it doesn't need a recipe! I make a quick dressing by whisking lemon juice, olive oil and sesame seeds. Monday's meals... easy peasy right?

Tadah! Meal done.


Do you have such recipes at home?
