What a beautiful salad! That's what everyone said. It was a big hit with the taste, also! I substituted reduced fat mayo and no one missed the fat! I substituted frozen precooked shrimp and added a little tony's for flavor. Will definitely make for a crowd again. It may be my good luck dish, the Tigers won the Peach Bowl with a second string quarterback!12/31/05

Purchase fresh/frozen already cooked shrimp to cut down on time...it is worth every bite and do not miss making the dressing that goes with it. This is absolutely a fabulous dish. Easy directions, excellent flavors!06/24/03
