🦐 SHRIMP LOUIE! 🥗 Y’all, this salad is wo 🦐 SHRIMP LOUIE! 🥗

Y’all, this salad is worth every single flavor-filled step!

Each component needs to be well-seasoned and loved!

That means, taking some extra time to marinate your onions and tomatoes.

🍅🧅🍅🧅🍅🧅

Make your own Louie Dressing (similar to thousand island, but not sweet! It’s got a punch!)

Lay it all out onto a big platter, in an eye-catching way!

✨Magical✨ Mealtime Tip: Dinner Parties don’t have to be complicated. They can be as simple as serving this salad with a glass of wine. Making the platter look really nice makes this feel like a super fancy dinner idea! 

What do you like to make when it’s super hot out and you don’t want to cook?!

🍅🥖Bruschetta Panzanella! ASMR style! It’s 🍅🥖Bruschetta Panzanella! ASMR style!

It’s the marinated tomato salad you love over crusty bread — but the crusty bread is mixed in AND there are mini mozzarella balls…

🍅🥖🍅🥖🍅🥖

Who says no to this?!

It’s all drizzled with a tangy, sticky balsamic glaze, and extra basil is torn over top.

That smell of fresh basil is incredible, y’all!

 If you don’t have one, go get yourself a basil plant from Trader Joe’s… 

Serve this riff on Panzanella salad alongside grilled chicken or shrimp, or serve as is!
