CHAMPAGNE GRAPE AND SHRIMP SALAD SANDWICHES



Champagne Grape and Shrimp Salad Sandwiches image

Shrimp and grapes may sound odd, but this shrimp salad sandwich is a winner. Champagne grapes are a must, there is no substitution for their burst in your mouth sweetness. This recipe came from an elderly gentleman I stood next to at the seafood counter in the grocery store. He insisted that since I was buying shrimp I had to get some champagne grapes and make this! It started out as just a simple trio of shrimp, mayo, and champagne grapes, but over the years I've added the rolls, lemon juice and chives. This works great as an appetizer if you just make the salad, then offer some toasted bruschetta (drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice) along with it! You don't have to measure the amounts, really. I always just grab a bunch of champagne grapes, a pound or two of shrimp, and add everything else to taste. You can make this a little ahead, but I don't recommend keeping it in the fridge for more than a day. And certainly toast the rolls or bruschetta at the last minute, since it's best when the bread is warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp will give your salad the best flavor. If you can't find fresh shrimp, frozen shrimp will also work, but thaw them completely before using.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to your salad. Some good options include celery, cucumber, onion, and bell pepper.
  • Use a creamy dressing: A creamy dressing will help to bind the ingredients together and make the salad more flavorful. Mayonnaise, sour cream, and Greek yogurt are all good options.
  • Season the salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Serve the salad on a toasted bun: This will help to hold the salad together and make it easier to eat.

Conclusion:

Shrimp salad sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make lunch or dinner option. They are perfect for a picnic or a potluck, and they can be made ahead of time. With a few simple tips, you can make the best shrimp salad sandwich that will surely be a hit with your family and friends.
