REC: Shrimp Mousse...So Good and Easy!
I had this at a 4th of July picnic and was very surprised to learn the ingredients. My DH and I were immediately addicted. My cousin got the recipe from the Deer Creek B&B Inn, Thomasville, GA.
1 can tomato soup
1/4 c cold water
1 c mayo
2 cans small shrimp, chopped fine or processed
1/2 c onion, finely chopped or processed
1/2 c celery, finely chopped or processed
1 pkg unflavored gelatin
a few drops of Tabasco or to taste
8 oz pkg cream cheese, room temp
Heat soup to boiling. Dissolve gelatin in cold water and add to soup. In large bowl, mix cream cheese w. mayo and Tabasco. Add soup & beat w. rotary beater. Add shrimp and veggies. Pour into mold (I layer first with saran wrap) and chill. Unmold onto platter and serve with buttery crackers or whatever you like.

Here's another I tried from EPI that was good
But I used a loaf of pumpernickel cocktail bread and cut off the crusts. I'm on a shrimp craze right now! I hope the link works. My first time (blush).

Cucumber cups, stuffed tomatoes...
How about slicing cucumbers into thick slices, scooping out the seeds, and filling with a mixture of sour cream, dill, and onion
Or filling cherry tomatoes with tuna
Slicing a can of date bread (unless you have time and energy to bake some fresh!) with cream cheese rosebuds if you're handy at cake decorating
Mini-cream puffs filled with egg, shrimp, or chicken
Mini-quiches from the freezer section of the grocery store

I'd rethink the devilled eggs. I WAS going to make them for a picnic last week....
but got the picture in my mind of a dozen or so hadboiled eggs in shatters as I tried to peel them. I'm never certain they are going to peel cleanly. That's an awful lot of egg salad! And yes, I've tried all the tricks. But sometimes they do, and sometimes they don't. I made that great blue cheese and nut dip in T&T Appetizers. Everyone loved it.

If you're able to buy them about a week ahead of using them hard boiled, aajay,
they will peel cleanly. It's the really fresh ones that cling to the shell.
