These shrimp salad rolls are my go-to simple, easy, no-cook dinner for hot summer day. Serve with pickles, potato chips and a spritz of lemon!

Apparently, I’m in a mood for super summer food this week. Very much so.

I’m totally thinking you should pair this shrimp salad roll with Monday’s pimento cheese pasta salad and call it a night.

OR I wish I could throw us all a party where we could enjoy these bites!

It’s funny, because right now I’m in Nantucket eating all the lobster rolls BUT… it’s a coincidence that I’m sharing said shrimp salad roll while I’m in Nantucket. We first made these back in April when I started testing summer recipes and trying to find the BEST eats to share with you guys.

And even though I came into a weird shrimp aversion when I was pregnant with Max, I couldn’t stop thinking about shrimp salad stuffed in a buttery brioche bun this season. It seemed so easy and so, so delicious.

And I was right!

Okay so here’s the thing. I live for a lobster roll – that’s no secret. It has to be fantastic and I definitely prefer butter soaked lobster rolls over mayo based ones. I’ll always choose the butter first. But, I still like mayo-based ones if that’s my only option, you know? It depends on the menu and the place, but some are done so obviously well that they melt in your mouth.

I’ve never ordered a shrimp salad roll anywhere, but I’ve always loved the idea of making them at home because, at least for us here in PA, it’s so much more accessible than making a lobster roll. And easier. And quicker!

Plus, it just tastes like summer. It’s a cool, no-cook dinner option for a super hot day, whether you’ve been outside working in the sun, sitting at the pool, you’re on vacation or just having a super busy week.

That’s one of the things that I LOVE about this recipe. It’s an essential summer treat, but one that you can throw together so fast – even if you end up with unexpected company. Throw some super crunchy kettle cooked potato chips on the side and serve with ice cold beer or white wine.

Such a lovely meal, right? It’s dreamy, one where just thinking about it sets a summer scene in my mind.

I think you can tell I’m hooked.

I won’t hate it if you stuff some potato chips inside the sandwich.
