SUMMER SUNDAY SHRIMP AND SMOKED SALMON

Say it three times real fast...I dare ya!

I made myself a rather lovely shrimp and smoked salmon salad today. I had boiled, deveined shrimp left over from supper last evening and I thought about chowing down with saltines and cocktail sauce...but I had neither saltines or cocktail sauce. What to do? What to do?

I also had a little smoked salmon, so I created a salad. No recipe, just play along. I chopped the shrimp and the salmon and threw them in the bowl. Next, I added some chopped fresh dill and some chopped scallions (mostly green part). Squeezed a little lemon juice and then stirred in a little mayo. Now seeing as how I don't like to keep things like crackers, bread, chips, etc. around the house, I was trying to determine the best way to serve this when my eyes fell upon two tomatoes fresh from the farm stand!

So here you are. Sunday Summer Shrimp and Smoked Salmon Salad Stuffed Tomato.

Do I need to tell you how good this was? I didn't thing so.

Shrimp and Salmon - what a great combination. What a great idea to serve them in a tomato. Must have been delicious.
