shrimpA Saturday night seafood salad where marinated rice is added to make the salad go further. The remaining ingredients are mixed with the rice right before the salad is going to be served.

I usually variate this seafood salad recipe depending on what I have on hand, but the rice and the shrimps are always there.

On the side: Garlic bread and extra sauce. Video Jug explains on film 4 How To Make Garlic Bread.

Seafood is one of my all time favorite food. My last meal request on earth would definitely involve a fresh and good seafood buffé.

I happened to find a site on Internet with some last meal request from executions. Reading this list one may wonder what kind of people they were. Very few seem to have lost their appetite. What do you say about “2 dozen scrambled eggs, flour tortillas, french fries and catsup”? Nobody requested a well done steak, cooked for 90 years on each side.
