Shrimp and Cabbage Salad image

This is yet another version of Ramen Noodle Slaw, but with a little different twist -- lime. Also,no nuts, as my family isn't wild about them in a main dish. The bottled dressings listed are Good Seasons and Kraft brands, because that's available here. This makes a great lunch or light supper when it's too hot to eat (but when is that???). It's easy to put together: use a LARGE Tupperware bowl with a lid, and you don't even need to stir, just turn it over a few times, and chill! (Cooking time is chilling time)
