Split each shrimp lengthwise. In a large bowl, combine shrimp, rice, celery, olives, green pepper, pimiento and onion; cover and chill.

Just before serving, stir together salt, pepper and mayonnaise and toss with shrimp mixture. Spoon shrimp onto crisp greens; garnish with tomato wedges and, if desired, with whole shrimp. Serve with French dressing and lemon wedges. 6 servings.

*Crabmeat, lobster or a combination of the three seafoods can be substituted for the shrimp.

This rainbow-colored salad has a delicate flavor and delightful texture – perfect for luncheon or a light supper.
