I made this Spicy Shrimp Roll and Shrimp Scampi Pasta {coming soon}.  Both meals were delicious.  But, this Spicy Shrimp Roll was my favorite.

My daughter and I set up a lawn picnic to enjoy these tasty sandwiches.  It is a great spring or summertime meal.

This Spicy Shrimp Roll is light and flavorful.  It is also super easy to make.

The shrimp that I received from Eastern Fish Company {& The Shrimp Council} were massive!  Shrimp-Zilla!

These giant shrimp were perfect for this sandwich.   Fresh meaty shrimp mixed with mayo, celery, sriracha, lemon, parsley and dill.  Fill a soft roll with the shrimp for the Ultimate Spicy Shrimp Roll!
