Shrimp, Cucumber and Avocado Salad for a Kentucky Derby Party

The Kentucky Derby is an iconic event that is celebrated every year on the first Saturday of May. It is a time when people come together to enjoy horse racing, fashion, and of course, delicious food. When it comes to food, there are a few dishes that are a must-have at a Kentucky Derby party, and one of them is shrimp, avocado, and cucumber salad.

This refreshing salad is perfect for the Kentucky Derby as it is light and packed with flavor, making it the perfect dish to enjoy while sipping on mint juleps and watching the races. The combination of shrimp, avocado, and cucumber creates a delicious flavor and texture profile that will satisfy any palate.

The salad is incredibly easy to make and requires only a handful of ingredients, making it the perfect dish for any party. All you need is some cooked shrimp, diced avocado, sliced cucumber and a few herbs. You can even prepare some of the ingredients ahead of time and assemble the salad just before serving.

Not only is this salad delicious and easy to make, but it is also incredibly healthy. Shrimp is low in calories and high in protein, making it an excellent choice for anyone watching their weight. Avocado is packed with healthy fats, fiber, and vitamins, while cucumber is hydrating and contains antioxidants.
