Tried it over the weekend. It was great as written, but next time I'll use Key limes, though. I like the flavor of those limes a bit better. The cheese is a great touch.

Like the mint/feta/lime in this recipe. Shrimp is discounted at a few of my local markets this week. One is even advertising the easy peel shrimp. I've never used that kind before, but I'll give them a try.
