No holiday at my house would be complete without this tasty shellfish appetizer. Cousins would riot if my Grandmother would skip making it for our celebrations. It’s a nice, lighter start to a hearty and savory Thanksgiving dinner.

GRANDMA’S SHRIMP

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/8 cup chili sauce
3 tsp. horseradish
1/4 cup minced red onion
1/2 tsp. Tabasco

1 tsp. chopped fresh parsley
