Changes - This is another dish I found while looking through a magazine. I made this and it's great but I did make it a 2nd time with some changes. I used the 1/2 lb. of shrimp, added a 16 oz. pkg of imitation crab meat, increased the chicken broth to 1 full cup and added 1/2 cup of shredded cheese. This one was just as good with more flavors. You can also add a can of drained crab meat or clams. Or change the dressing to Italian. A good one to get imaginative with.
