We&#8217;ve noticed shrimp that is prepared a day or two before is no longer firm and is overly soft.<\/li><li>If using raw shrimp, we recommend boiling for best results. Simply follow these\u00a0easy instructions for boiling.<\/li><li>Try to use a somewhat firm avocado that is not too soft. Dice the avocado right before adding to the salad.<\/li><li>We recommend serving the salad the same day it&#8217;s made. After making, you can store in a covered container in the fridge until you&#8217;re ready to serve. We do not recommend making a day in advance since it doesn&#8217;t taste as fresh.<\/li><li>If you&#8217;re making for a gathering, we recommend doubling the recipe.<\/li><li>You can serve as is or in a low-carb pita<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INGREDIENTS\u00a0\u00a0 \u25a21&nbsp;pound&nbsp;medium-size shrimp pre-cooked OR raw (peeled, deveined and tail-on) \u25a25&nbsp;tablespoons&nbsp;lemon juice \u25a22&nbsp;tablespoons&nbsp;extra-virgin olive oil \u25a22&nbsp;garlic cloves, minced \u25a27&nbsp;ounces&nbsp;English cucumber (roughly \u2154), diced \u25a22&nbsp;ounces&nbsp;red onion (roughly \u00bd small red onion), diced \u25a21&nbsp;avocado, diced \u25a2\u00bd&nbsp;teaspoon&nbsp;salt (half for dressing, half for seasoning salad); ground pepper as desired \u25a2\u00bc&nbsp;teaspon&nbsp;red pepper flakes (optional) INSTRUCTIONS\u00a0 : Prepare shrimp:\u00a0If using raw [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6041,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[366],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6040"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6040"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6040\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6040"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6040"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mudassirbackup.infinitycodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6040"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
