This burst of fresh flavour will make you feel like you are in shrimp
heaven! I designed this recipe out of necessity a couple of summers
ago because I had to use up some jumbo shrimp and my fresh cilantro was
starting to thin out a bit. Waste not want not is my motto! I had some
other leftover things just hanging out in my fridge, so I decided to get
busy!

Ingredients:

• 2 Cups shrimp (I prefer jumbo, but frozen salad shrimp are also ok)
• 4 cups bowtie pasta (cooked!)
• 1/2 cup minced cilantro
• 1 cucumber coarsely chopped without seeds!
• 2 cups mayonnaise (just say no to Miracle Whip!)
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2-4 minced garlic cloves
• 1/2 cup minced celery stalk with leaves left on
  several shakes of Adobo seasoning (kind of spicy salt mix found in the
  Mexican food section)
• A pinch of freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste.

Method:

1. Take a large mixing bowl and hand blend cilantro, garlic, mayo, lemon
   juice, adobo, celery and cucumber (make sure you drain out any extra
   water left from cucumber)
2. Add cooked noodles and cooked shrimp (if using large shrimp, make sure
   to cut them into bite size pieces.)

3. Mix well in mayo mixture, then refrigerate for about an hour!
4. You can add some tomato, or even shredded cheddar cheese, maybe even
   a little Parmesan. Guaranteed to make your tongue tingle!
5. Try even a little jalapeño with the seeds removed!
