3. Shrimp Salad: Combine all ingredients except shrimp until creamy; fold in shrimp and sprinkle top with a little dill. Serve on lettuce leaf with a side of the creamy lemon jello.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your shrimp salad will taste. This is especially important for the shrimp, as it can easily become tough and rubbery if it's not fresh.
Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important to be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the salad will be more refreshing.
Serve the salad on a bed of lettuce: This will add a bit of crunch and freshness to the salad.
Garnish the salad with lemon wedges and fresh herbs: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the salad.
