This salad was very good. My husband and I were both really impressed with the flavor, and the fact that medium sized shrimp were used instead of the tiny canned ones found in most shrimp salads. We did however feel that there was a bit too much dressing for our tastes. When I make this again, I will probably use about half the amounts of sour cream and cream cheese called for, as well as cut back on the lime juice. Other than those two personal preferences, I thought this was a wonderfully flavorful low-fat salad.
