Ingredients

1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh gingerroot
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 scallions
1 large carrot
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 12)
4 ounces Asian rice-stick noodles
1 firm-ripe California avocado

Directions

  1. In a small bowl whisk together honey, lemon juice, and gingerroot until combined. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified, and season with salt and pepper. Thinly slice scallions diagonally and cut carrot into 1-inch-long thin julienne strips.
