It is quick and simple to prepare and is a great meal to take to work for lunch instead of boring sandwiches! It consists of a shrimp and broccoli salad mixed with a spicy and sour minced pork dressing. Its tasty and filling, but low on calories.
We have used minced pork in this recipe but you could also use minced chicken if you prefer. This recipe is a great way to use up broccoli stalks which people often through away, but once peeled and cooked are actually very soft, tasty, and good for you!
