Shrimp and White Bean Salad w/Harissa Dressing (lunch)

by Irene Lindvall


We have dinner plans tonight so I went with one of the numerous quick salads I have waiting to be made. I've had this one saved because I wanted to see what harissa seasoning tasted like. I chose to have Eric grill the shrimp rather than pay fry them so I could get the rest of the salad together while the shrimp were cooking. The timing worked out perfectly and I think we prefer the taste of the shrimp from the grill. As for the dressing, it was quite spicy and by the end maybe a little too spicy. Eric liked the taste of the dish, but I actually thought the dressing needed something else, like more lemon juice or some type of vinegar taste to make the dish more well balanced. 

Things I learned from this recipe:

Harissa is a common spice in Tunisia, Libya and Algeria. 

Would I make this recipe again?:

No
