Peas are a smart choice, as 1 cup delivers 9 grams of both protein and fiber. Peas also have lutein, an antioxidant that helps protect eyes. 

Ingredients

• 1 lb. frozen cooked and peeled shrimp
• 1/2 cup Persian cucumbers, sliced ¼-inch thick
• 1 cup peas
• sea salt to taste
• 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
• 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 tbsp red-wine vinegar
• 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 2 pinches dry oregano
• 3 pinches black pepper
• 8 cups greens, mesclun, or spring mix

Directions

Place unopened shrimp in cold water until thawed or leave in the refrigerator overnight. When ready to eat, rinse the thawed shrimp in a colander with cold water and allow to drain.

In a bowl, combine all the ingredients except for the greens. Toss well to coat. Place the greens in a serving dish and top with the shrimp mixture.
