Shrimp Roll-REVIEW

  Re: (...)
I don't know if this has already been reviewed, but here goes.

William LOVES shrimp salad, but I've never been able to duplicate how his great aunt used to make it. I've tried all kinds of recipes. Well, this isn't exactly like hers, but he LOVED it. We gave this a 10. It would have been over the top if my popcorn bread had risen! The cucumber in the dressing was incredible. Another summer recipe for the regular menu plans. YUM! Only problem, there was none left for lunch today.

Oh crap! Daphne, this looks so good - I do have that book. Will add your review to the recipe. And I think I have the perfect shaped rolls in the freezer for this.

Thanks, Daphne, this does look really good, and I don't know how I missed it. I have that book and just didn't look closely enough, I guess. Did you use the fat free mayo? and was it ok? I would think there's so many flavors going on there, the regular mayo wouldn't be missed at all.

On the list...

I used Dukes Light. From past experience, fat free anything just doesn't have the texture and/or flavor of the real thing, where light or reduced does. To be honest, I have yet to see fat free mayo anyway. And like you said, there's so much flavor there you don't notice the mayo taste....just texture. That's where I'd be afraid to use fat free...is it more runny? If so, I don't think it'd work.

Finally a winner!! This is really good, it's raining and cold around here, so oven roasted the shrimp (the method I usually use for shrimp/prawns) - smelled so good in here!

OH MAN! Jean, I was hoping to wait at least a week before making this again....I may not make it! YUMMMMMMMMM!!! It's worse looking at a pic of something you've had and loved....Drool is about to spill out on the keyboard!

I may have to make the muffuletta again before the review too! It's so darn hot here, those two are winners and they're served cold! And I did mess up my bread for this one and had to use store bought. I guess I'm obligated to try it again soon...for fairness sake...LOL! I know William won't argue! At least you HAD leftovers!!!! I'm doubling the recipe next time!
