Description
A wonderful summer take-off version of the original. This recipe is from one of my favorite cooking magazines "Fine Cooking" July 2006. I substituted fat-free mayonnaise.

Directions
Put the shrimp in a steamer basket over simmering water and steam until just cooked through, about 3 minutes (the center should still be slightly translucent.) Let cool.
In a medium bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, buttermilk, lemon juice, tarragon, and mustard. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Cut the shrimp into 1/2 inch pieces and mix in a large bowl with the apples, grapes, celery, and almonds. Toss enough of the dressing to coat the ingredients well. You may not need it all. Taste and add more lemon juice, salt or pepper as needed. Sprinkle with chives and serve on beds of lettuce. Serves 6-8.
