Molded Shrimp Salad Recipes

OLD-FASHIONED LEMON JELLO SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Dissolve lemon Jell-O in the boiling water. Stir in salt and grated onion.
• Put the lemon Jell-O mixture into the refrigerator until it begins to set, approximately 15 minutes. If you turn the bowl, and the Jell-O moves as one glob, it is ready.
• Meanwhile, in a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until firm.
• Once the Jell-O is set, add whipped cream, mayonnaise and pimento cheese spread. Beat on low until just incorporated. Be sure not to over beat so that you don't break the heavy cream.
• Add the drained tiny shrimp, green pepper and hard boiled eggs; stir until completely mixed.
• Chill until set, approximately 3 to 4 hours.
• Serve with crackers or as a sandwich.
