Introduction

this is another fantasy recipe of mine. It's slow to make, but is a TON of fun to eat, and, I think, pretty good for you. this is another fantasy recipe of mine. It's slow to make, but is a TON of fun to eat, and, I think, pretty good for you.

Ingredients

    24 jumbo shells
    10 drops green food coloring (very optional)
    5 drops yellow (very optional)
    ½ cup lemon juice
    3 tbsp olive oil

    1 package Louis Kemp “Lobster Delights”, Healthy variety - finely chopped
    1, ½c celery - finely chopped
    1, ½c carrots - finely chopped
    ½c cranberries - finely chopped
    ¾c olive-oil mayonnaise
    1tsp red pepper flakes
    1 head romaine lettuce

Directions

Prepare the shells first as the package describes, but add the lemon juice and food coloring to the water. (The food coloring is entirely for fun) Once the pasta finishes cooking, drain it and dunk it into ice water until it is icy cold.

Then, combine the celery, carrots, cranberries, red pepper, and lobster with the mayo. Fold and combine it well.

Rinse the lettuce and cut out the center, white ribs. Chop the lettuce width-wise into thin shreds (about 1/8").

Now, assemble the shells. Place a generous pinch of lettuce into a shell, and then spoon in about 2tbsp of salad mix. Once the shells are assembled, chill them for about an hour to let all of the flavors combine, and then serve.

One serving is three shells.
