Shrimp and Corn Salad image

From RealSimple. I make this in huge batches and eat on it for days! It's so good on top of a little arugula with goat cheese. I sometimes use chicken and pine nuts instead of shrimp and pumpkin seeds--sort of sub out according to what I have around.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. It's also a great make-ahead dish, which is perfect for busy weeknights. I like to double the recipe and save half for lunch the next day.

I'm not a big fan of shrimp, but I loved this salad! The corn and celery were so fresh and crunchy, and the dressing was perfect. I will definitely be making this salad again, even if I have to use chicken instead of shrimp.
