This easy-to-make Shrimp Salad can also be used as Dip. If you like "San Francisco's Seafood & Shrimp Salad" from Sam's Club, you will like this. It is very similar (my mom said she actually prefers my version over theirs - listen to your mother!). In this recipe we used 'healthy' ingredients. Many diets, including "Phase 1 and Phase 2 Antifungal" restrict starch, sugar, carbs, flours, and so on. The best part is, the measurements can be adjusted to taste and substitutions can be made as well (noted below).
