1/2 c v-8 juice or tomato juice
2 Tbsp plain gelatin; i used 2 envelopes plain
SOAK GELATIN IN COLD JUICE.
3 1/2 c v-8 juice, heated; or tomato juice, hot

I USED 24 SHRIMP,COOKED AT THE FISH MARKET AND CHILLED,EASY!
MIX WHIPPED CREAM AND MAYONNAISE TO MAKE A SAUCE.
1/4 c mayonaise
1/2 c heavy cream, whipped

Steps:

1. I made this with whole cooked shrimp, but next time I will cut each into about three pieces. I only used celery and green olives; and no basil.
2. Since I wanted it to be my lunch, I used three cereal bowls for molding, and there was about a cup left over in another container. So it makes plenty!
3. The cold shrimp helped it set up fast. I actually left it overnight in the refrigerator. Unmold on crisp lettuce and serve with mayo and whipped cream.
