Cauliflower Shrimp Salad
SUBMITTED BY:
AMY BARTHELEMY
"Thinly sliced, raw cauliflower and cooked shrimp, marinated in a creamy dressing, are the main ingredients in this unusual salad. This has always been a hit at potlucks and family get-togethers. It tastes best if you make it a day before you plan to serve it."

I was intrigued by the odd combination of ingredients in this recipe, and though skeptical, the reviews convinced me to try it. I'm glad I did - the results were surprisingly tasty! I omitted the boiled eggs (I'm not a fan) and chilled it overnight as recommended. I served the salad over baby spinach dressed lightly with olive oil and red wine vinegar. Awesome! I would never have thought to combine these ingredients, but I will definitely make this again.

Okay, but it needs a more flavorful dressing than the bottled one I used. Also, too much green onion for my taste. I liked the combination of salad ingredients, but I need a good salad dressing recipe to go with this instead of using a bottled one.

This recipe is a hit. I made it for the first time, took it to a church fellowship, they loved it. I had to make another batch to keep at home. It's really very good. It is best to make it the day before as suggested.

A quick easy recipe to make when unexpected guests stop by on a hot summer day. You can stretch how many the recipe will feed by serving the salad over a bed of lettuce. Add some crusty bread and you have a light summer dinner.

This is a fantastic recipe: It has so much texture and flavor. I made this recipe yesterday for a large gathering, and I was repeatedly complimented on this recipe as well as asked for the recipe. I referred those individuals to allrecipes.com! Thanks, Amy!

For this family, it was neither distasteful, nor outstanding. Everyone ate it, including my husband and 7 & 9 year old girls. I used Marie's Creamy Italian Garlic for the dressing choice. The only switch I made was using chives because I didn't have green onions. The whole dish was a nice change and had some lovely flavours, but I just did not consider it a *WOW* 5 Star kind of dish and will more then likely not be making it again.

I took this to a family potluck. All the women liked it but not many of the men. It only chilled in the fridge for an hour or so before serving. It probably would have tasted even better if it was refrigerated over night. I also used a fat free salad dressing which tasted pretty good still. I will try this recipe again by chopping the cauliflower smaller, using regular dressing and refridgerating over night.
