These seaside-inspired sandos start with sizzled Old Bay-seasoned shrimp. You’ll build the sandwiches by spreading zesty pickle Dijonnaise over toasted baguettes and piling in shrimp, tomato, and zippy lemony-dressed arugula. Serve alongside tortilla chips, pickles, and more refreshing arugula salad for a delicious meal that comes together in a speedy 20 minutes.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

The tastes were all on point, but it was difficult to eat because things kept falling out. We thought of a better way - this might work better as a salad. The buns could be croutons and the lettuce/shrimp on the arugula with the dijonnaise as dressing. It was delicious however you make it!

Easy and Delicious. Definitely something I can make without HF. Rolls were excellent. I wish the salad was something else - I'm not an arugula fan.

Too messy, the rolls weren't really suitable for holding shrimp. And directions should have suggested using less of the Old Bay. Even with just 3/4 of the packet the flavor was too strong.

Tasty and filling, enjoyed this. Maybe a slaw as a side would be an interesting option.
