"I use the unused yolks crumbled for topping on a salad, or you can mix with mayo, celery seed, salt, and chives, etc., for a sandwich spread, like a tea sandwich. The time I posted is for using already cooked shrimp and already boiled eggs."

These were devoured as soon as they hit the potluck table! I chopped the shrimp, but put one small whole one on top for aesthetics. They looked really nice, especially in a variety-spread which included Recipe #55943 and Recipe #192196. Thanks for the recipe!

Very very good! Served them at a luncheon , everyone loved them because they were different and of course who dosen't like shrimp! I followed Rita's lead and used the yolks in another stuffed egg recipe, as she said it was nice to have two different kinds. These dissapeared very quickly. I sprinkled celery seed and paprika over them as a garnish. Thanks for sharing one we will use again.

I also made Ginny`s Eggs recipe #77439. So I used the yolks from these for that recipe which made them nice and full. But for this recipe which was really good and refreshing, lighter then the egg stuffed ones, which by the way was 5 stars too. I added some old bay to the shrimp. Filled the egg whites and topped it with a cocktail sauce. Looked really pretty. It was nice to serve 2 kinds of stuffed eggs. Thanks Ginny!
