Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 c v-8 juice or tomato juice
2 Tbsp plain gelatin; i used 2 envelopes plain
SOAK GELATIN IN COLD JUICE.
3 1/2 c v-8 juice, heated; or tomato juice, hot
1 tsp approx./or 2 sqeezes,fresh lemon juice/optional
1 pinch basil/optional
1 or 2 c chopped veggies; celery,carrots,peppers,olives
1 c cooked shrimp, peeled
DISSOLVE GELATIN MIX IN HOT JUICE. IF DESIRED ADD LEMON JUICE & BASIL
ADD CHOPPED VEGGIES AND SHRIMP.
I USED 24 SHRIMP,COOKED AT THE FISH MARKET AND CHILLED,EASY!
MIX WHIPPED CREAM AND MAYONNAISE TO MAKE A SAUCE.
1/4 c mayonaise
1/2 c heavy cream, whipped

Steps:

  • 1. I made this with whole cooked shrimp, but next time I will cut each into about three pieces. I only used celery and green olives; and no basil.
  • 2. Since I wanted it to be my lunch, I used three cereal bowls for molding, and there was about a cup left over in another container. So it makes plenty!
  • 3. The cold shrimp helped it set up fast. I actually left it overnight in the refrigerator. Unmold on crisp lettuce and serve with mayo and whipped cream.
