Why We Love This Recipe

  • It’s light and refreshing and can be served as a salad, a sandwich, or an appetizer.
  • It can be dressed up and served on a platter to impress your family and friends.
  • Because I use store-bought deveined and cooked shrimp there is no cooking involved.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

  • If you use chilled ingredients, there is no need to chill for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Be sure to remove the tails of the shrimp before cutting them into pieces.
  • Serve this on a large platter lined with lettuce leaves as an appetizer or a salad. Or serve it on bread or a croissant as a sandwich.
