    Every time I make these for a party they disappear within minutes. This is a great recipe.

    YUM! This recipe was SO good! I made it for the Super Bowl party and it was a HUGE hit. I used the store-bought phyllo dough cups and sea salt instead of regular salt. You have to stir the sauce until it's smooth--the mayo will look lumpy at first but stir it quickly and it will become very creamy. The only thing was that the sauce seemed a little thin and a lot was sitting in the bottom of the bowl after mixing with the shrimp mixture. I'd definitely make this again, though--it's perfectly light and would be great in the summer!

    The shrimp salad is delicious. I often add some extra spices to "kick it up a notch" as someone said below. I've found that the frozen, pre-made phyllo cups tend to be a bit dry, so when I use them I oil them and put in plenty of parmesan cheese on the bottom to give them more taste. I've also served the salad on cucumber slices (English and on endive leaves to mix things up a little for interesting apps. So easy to make and you can make it the day before. As an event planner that's definitely a plus! PS - I'm SO making the sandwich with the spinach & bacon for lunch one day! Sounds great!

    This recipe is phenomenal! This is a nice, light shrimp salad that tastes great on sandwiches too! Sometimes I add cayenne pepper to kick it up a notch. Serve it on toasted bread with fresh spinach leaves and bacon and boy oh boy do you have a meal!

    I'm reviewing the reviews !! Today there are 31 reviews, and once again I have learned so much. All the suggestions plus the tips and tricks and changes let me know in advance what to expect. Now I see that several people thought the filling was bland, but the cups were worth the effort. I can see the potential for many variations. Wonton wrappers, pie crust, torn biscuits, crescent rolls etc. for a start. When I saw Brian Boitano make bacon cups using an inverted muffin pan topped by another I knew there could be other applications. If you substitute water chestnuts for celery, why not slant the recipe toward the Oriental with spices, too? Anyway, I just wanted to thank all of you for contributing your great comments. I've printed the recipe and added all the comments I need; now it's time to hit the kitchen!

    I made these for a Christmas party at work. I used the pre-made cups only because it is a busy week for me. I did brush them with the garlic butter and sprinkle with parmesan as someone else suggested and crisped them up a little more. Also used creole seasoning in place of salt and did a mixture of Miracle Whip and mayo. Also would suggest to use the lemon juice because it definitely added something and the creole gave them a nice kick.

    Fast and easy! I made these for a party and they went so fast! Everyone was asking me for the recipe. I used frozen phyllo cups and they tasted great.

    I made these with Pillsbury Jr. Biscuits as the mini cups, I tore each biscuit dough into thirds and used the outside of a mini muffin tin to shape the pieces of dough. I then baked it for 6 minutes to get these cute mini cups to hold the delicious shrimp salad! I will absolutely be making this again, to make it healthier I used reduced fat mayo.

    I made these for my daughter's baptism brunch. The shrimp salad was delicious and I will absolutely be making it again. I liked the mini phyllo cups, but I'm not sure I liked them enough to go through all the work to make them again.
