Macaroni Anyone?

This time of year is really hard for me... I am not the type of person that gets homesick and yet this time of year I start craving my mothers "Shrimp & Macaroni Salad". And it is one of those salads that it doesn't matter how or when you make it... It just never seems to taste like MOM's.

So, here is my LOW-CAL version....
