Creamy Shrimp Rolls

First of all, thanks for all the new readers who checked me out from my other blog. I also want to thank all of my readers for the wonderful comments. I appreciate each and every one of them and I appreciate you taking a few minutes out of your day to check out my blog so I am not 'Dining Alone!'.

As summer comes to an end for most of you I wanted to offer up one of my favorite summer sandwiches, Shrimp Rolls. You may be familiar with Lobster Rolls but lobster meat isn't nearly as easy to come by (or as cheap) as frozen shrimp. I made variations of this but found a good recipe in the magazine Real Simple.








Easy side dish, chips!




You need some frozen cooked shrimp. I defrost mine in a bowl of cool water while I prep the rest of the ingredients.




I have been using the Debbie Meyer green bags for a few weeks and I am a big fan. They may not save me a ton of money but they really save me a ton of grief of not having to be upset when I go to use an ingredient and it is rotten.




You need a regular old hot dog bun.




You want some kind of green on the bun, I chose spinach.




Line the bun with the spinach and you are nearly done!




Chop up your celery.




Chop up your shrimp.




Add them together in a bowl.




I like to use french grey salt in simple dishes like this, but kosher or sea salt is fine also.




Add in some lemon juice




I ran out of my beloved vegenaise and as we have been trying to save gas I haven't got to the specialty market that carries it. I am using good old Best Foods. Add this in with the rest of your ingredients and give it a stir. I missed getting a picture at this point because I was hungry and it looked and smelled delicious.








This is a perfect lunch for a late summer weekend and you won't spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking. Have a great weekend!!
