Shrimp Cocktail

For this salad to look its best you need sherbet goblets or, even better, the kind of crystal bowl that rests on a bed of crushed ice. Remember that aphrodisiacs also appeal to the eye.

Ingredients

1 avocado, peeled, seeded, crushed, and seasoned with 1 teaspoon lemon juice, salt, and pepper

1 cup cooked shrimp

1 medium apple, peeled and grated

1/2 cup tomato sauce

1 tablespoon oil

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon mustard

Lemon slices or mint leaves for garnish

Preparation

Place the crushed avocado in sherbet goblets or crystal bowls. Add the shrimp. Combine the apple, tomato sauce, oil, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard. Cover the shrimp with this sauce. Garnish with a lemon slice or mint leaf.
