This is the perfect salad for a Tuesday night dinner, and Wednesday lunch leftovers. I make a batch of homemade Caesar dressing, but I won’t judge you if you buy premade.

This looks so good. Although, I don’t eat seafood, I would switch out the shrimp for chicken. Thanks for sharing
Anything with shrimp I will eat, yum!
Wow, this looks amazing!! I love buffalo anything with ranch, so Caesar sounds like it would be great, too. How do you come up with these things?!
Yummmm! I could totally make this and it looks so good!
Love how easy this is and it sounds delicious! I’m not a huge fan of shrimp but I bet it’d be just as good with chicken! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
I make it with shredded crockpot chicken a lot too! I just love how easy it is!
