Gather your ingredients for the salad.
Chop the eggs, pickles small dice, and mince the onion.
 |
Drain the shrimp or thaw and drain if you buy frozen,
Make sure the shrimp is not too wet. |

This is how I shred the lettuce.

Mix all the ingredients together with the Miracle Whip or Mayonnaise and mustard.
Season with salt and pepper.
If you are going to make this ahead of time, I leave the shredded lettuce separate and just mix it in at the last.

This makes an elegent luncheon dish, and goes well with tomatoes.

It also works well stuffed in a nice beefsteak tomato.
Just cut the tomato in wedges but don't go all the way down,
You can then spread it out like a flower and put the salad in the center.
