Shrimp is one of my favorite foods from the sea, and when made in a sandwich, tastes even better. Try this recipe for casual get-togethers or even formal dinners. They're great as an appetizer and as a simple, yet elegant, introduction to any meal.

SHRIMP SALAD SANDWICH

You'll need:

1 1/2 lb. shrimp, deveined, shelled, and halved (and just cooked)
1 small red onion, minced
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1 T. celery salt
1/4 c. sour cream
1/4 c. Miracle Whip
1 T. freshly ground black pepper
1/2 T. paprika
2 T. freshly squeezed lime juice
a pinch of salt
1/4 c. freshly cut chives, chopped fine

slices of white bread
1 T. butter
1/2 T. Italian seasoning

1. Prepare the white bread by using a round cookie cutter and cutting a circle out of each slice. Toast each circle. In the meantime, mix together butter and Italian seasoning. Spread thinly on each slice.

2. Mix together all of the other ingredients, ensuring that the shrimp is fully dressed. Using a tablespoon, scoop out the filling and place on one bread circle. Top with another bread circle. Garnish with chives.
