I thought this sounded great and will be trying it soon. If you don't like some of the seafood (or can not get it) just add a bit more of the other seafood listed. Recipe source: local newspaper

This is just delicious, if you like extreme flavor, this is a must-try!...I just used shrimp and some smoked sausage to make this salad as that is all I had. Also I omitted the wine vinegar, increased the garlic and added in some dryed chili flakes for even more heat! this is an easy dish with tons of flavor, I will make this again for sure, thanks Ellie!...Kitten:)
