Cilantro Lime Shrimp, Avocado, Chickpea Salad

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.
