I love, love, love this recipe! I quadrupled the recipe size for a party of 14 and it all went in a matter of 30 seconds. Everyone raved about it and this recipe is super easy to put together. My only comment is that I didn't need to quadruple the recipe for the dip. Although everyone had some dip, I was left with a quart and a half of leftover dip! I probably only needed to make the amount of dip the recipe originally calls for or doubling the amount. This is such a refreshing take on the original shrimp cocktail.

This was very easy to make and the sauce was refreshing. I used nonfat yogurt and low fat mayo and it still had tons of flavor. I’ve never used herbes de Provence on sautéed shrimp before but that was a very nice discovery. It was excellent and liked by the whole family from ages 4 – 42.

I thought this appetizer was excellent. And I love the sauce. It is a tasty change from the usual ketchup and horseradish.
