Spicy Cajun Oriental Shrimp Olive Salad with Wonton Crackers

Have you heard of "37 Cooks"? It is a great blog about cooking with wonderful recipes. I got this recipe from the site. It is from Linda Mire one of the 37 cooks. Just a great little salad. If you can't find Slap Ya Mama seasoning I think any good canjun seasoning would do just fine.

 
Here is the recipe from Linda
 



 Salad:

2 cups shrimp (peeled, boiled and chopped) *
1/2 cup water chestnuts (diced)
1/2 cup bean sprouts (ends removed and diced)
1/2 cup celery (diced)
1/2 cup red bell pepper (diced)
1/2 cup green onions (diced)
1 cup green olives with pimentos (diced)
1 cup black olives (diced)
Handful of bean sprouts (end removed) for garnish
Whole green olives for garnish
Black pepper for garnish

 
Place all ingredients in a large salad bowl (except the garnish items). Cover with plastic wrap and chill for an hour.

 Dressing for Salad:

3/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoon Slap Ya Mama Original Blend Cajun Seasoning
dash of sea salt and white pepper

 
Combine all ingredients and whisk well. Set aside.

 Wontons:

12 wonton wrappers (cut in half for triangles shape)
Olive oil
