I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the cashews, the crunch of the peas, and the tanginess of the dressing are all perfect together.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some leftover from a shrimp boil and this was the perfect way to use them up.
