Jazzed up Creole Shrimp Salad image

Fat Tuesday is today the first day of Dining on a Dollar And what better way then to enjoy is with a no cook meal made with my twist on a Remoulade sauce. Lent starting the day after making this is a good dish for abstinence from meat. Then when the days get hot its a cooling, refreshing eats! Enjoy the salad over a beg of greens, stuffed in an avocado or on Muffuletta or Baguette. If you double the dressing add a pound of cook pasta for a delish pasta salad. Try crab meat, or canned salmon or crawfish.

I love serving this salad on a bed of lettuce. It makes it look more elegant, and it also adds a nice crunch.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I usually make a big batch of shrimp scampi, and then I use the leftovers to make this salad. It's a great way to get a second meal out of one dish.

I'm not a fan of Creole seasoning, so I used a different blend of spices. It was still really good! I think you could use any type of seasoning that you like.

I'm not a fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead. It was still really good! The yogurt gave the salad a nice tangy flavor.
