In addition to the Margarita Shrimp Salad, you can use this zingy dressing to make low-fat Caesar salad with romaine, croutons and Parmesan shavings. It also works well as a marinade for chicken.

Creamy, tart, spicy all at once. This is a great dressing and marinade; I use it often especially in summer. A real winner!
