Oh yeah.. i LOVE pasta salads and when you suggested adding shrimp i could tell this was going to be a good one. for adults i would add just a dash of tobasco or a bit of horseradish. sometimes we need a kick. high 5!

I adore shrimp salad. Try roasting the shrimp, shell on for a greater depth of flavor and a meatier texture. Also, adding salt before serving runs the risk of drawing moisture from the celery, onion, and shrimp making the dish a runny mess. Trust me; I learned this the hard way.
