Ingredients

Buffalo Spice Rub:

1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1 lb medium shrimp shelled and deveined (30-32 shrimp)

Salad:

12 cups Romaine lettuce cut into 1-inch pieces (3 hearts)
2 stalks celery thinly sliced on the bias
1/4 small red onion thinly sliced
1/4 cup reduced-fat blue cheese crumbles

Spicy Dressing:

1/2 cup Walden Farms calorie free creamy dressing pick your favorite flavour
2 T hot sauce

Other:

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

In a gallon-sized resealable bag, combine the spice rub ingredients, and give the bag a quick shake.
Add the shrimp to the bag and shake them around to evenly coat all sides of the shrimp.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, and add the oil.
Transfer the shrimp to the skillet. Cook the shrimp 30 seconds to 1 minute, then flip them to cook an additional 30 seconds on the other side, until pink. Set aside on a plate.
In a large mixing bowl, toss together the lettuce, celery, onion, and blue cheese.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients and toss them into the salad with tongs.
Add the set-aside shrimp, and gently toss to combine.
