I added red wine vinegar, stuffed green olives, a touch of garlic powder and a fistful of curry powder. Good stuff.

Delicious - this reminded me of a salad my Mom used to make. I used Miracle Whip becuase we like it better for salads. Love the kick the horseradish gives it. This is a great summer salad to enjoy in the heat.

Very good! Nice clean taste. I used both shrimp and imitation crab. I printed it out to place in my cookbook. Will certainly make this again. Thank you.
