Made your recipe as written, though I did cut it in half for just the two of us! Absolutely loved it, & am now thinking about doubling it sometime soon for one of the frequent potlucks we seem to have here in our mobile home park! Thanks for sharing it!

This was nice! I used frozen shrimp (91-110 size). I halved the recipe and got two large dinner-size salads. I added the chives to the shrimp instead of on top and added some salt and pepper (I over salted just a bit but the lettuce and tomatoes helped cut it.) Thanks for sharing!
