Shrimp lovers delight

My step son posted this recipe and for shrimp lovers, here his is.

I think I have perfected my shrimp cocktail recipe, and it's under 200 calories per serving, so you can munch 600 calories of Juantonio's Tortilla Chips, the best flavor wise, and really enjoy without killing your diet!
