This salad is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some cooked shrimp in the fridge and this recipe was the perfect way to use it up. The salad was easy to make and it turned out delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great! It was a little heavy on the mayonnaise for my taste, so I might try using less next time. But overall, it was a delicious and easy-to-make salad.
