I made this yesterday for my mother's birthday and in less than 30 minutes, four adults and two little kids polished off the entire bowl.
Trust me, it's great served as an appetizer but you can also dish it up on top of lettuce greens for a delicious salad. The other great thing is pickled shrimp is an easy way to impress with a minimum amount of work. It takes about 10 minutes to stir together and then it simply chills for 2 to 8 hours.
