Shrimp with Feta & Lemon Dip
Instead of pulling out the cocktail sauce, try something a little different and unexpected. This tangy and creamy dip is perfect with shrimp, although it is also delicious with fresh cut veggies, or even spread on your favorite sandwich.
To make this dairy free, instead of the cheese, create a creamy base using pureed (canned) canellini beans.
Add all the dip ingredients into a mini food processor and process until smooth – or you can do it the old fashioned way with a spatula and a bit of elbow grease!
When you are peeling the shrimp, leave the tails on – this will give you something to hold onto when you’re eating them. Sauté the shrimp until they are pink and opaque , just 3-4 minutes.
