Ingredients

6 servings
  • 6 soft fresh bread rolls
  • 1 small head of green lettuce
  • 2 medium tomatoes (thickly sliced)
  • 2 avocados (pitted, peeled and sliced (optional))
  • 8 -10 fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
  • 1 lb large shrimp (cooked, shelled and coarsely chopped)
  • 1/4 cup real mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp sour cream
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard (Grey Poupon)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp fresh dill (finely chopped)
  • 2 Tbsp fresh green onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 small cucumber (diced)

Steps

  1. Chop and pat dry your cooked shrimp.

  2. In a medium bowl, combine shrimp, 1/4 cup mayo, 2 Tbsp sour cream, 2 tsp Dijon, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 Tbsp chopped dill, 2 Tbsp chopped green onion. Mix well to combine then gently stir in chopped cucumbers. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. Line your prepared vegetables up on a large serving platter. Garnish the tomatoe slices with basil if you're feeling fancy.

  4. Brush your bread lightly with butter and toast on a hot skillet until golden brown on one side. Toasting makes all the difference with these sandwiches. These rolls are from Fred Meyer; buy the softest and freshest ones you can get your hands on. Add the toasted bread to your serving platter and you're ready to feed a crowd.
