    I love salads during the Summer more than any other time of the year. They are so wonderful to have for a “clean lunch” by themselves or as a side dish with dinner.

    I had a bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer that I was planning on marinating and grilling again but I was in the mood for something different.  And since I’m on a cilantro kick lately, (I really can’t get enough! Love it!), I made this little Cilantro Shrimp, Avocado, Chickpea Salad concoction and I loved it so much I had it for dinner with my favorite Turkey Burgers.

    Ingredients for Cilantro Lime Shrimp, Avocado, Chickpea Salad

    1 lb of cooked shrimp, cut in half

    1 cup of chickpeas

    1 avocado, diced

    ½ cup of cilantro, chopped

    1 tablespoon of lime juice

    1 teaspoon olive oil

    ½ teaspoon of garlic powder

    ⅛ teaspoon pepper
