We love shrimp at Carolina HeartStrings and Alessa and I both decided to create a wonderful sandwich using this favorite. Alessa’s shrimp and pimento cheese sandwich on Monday looked so yummy. It inspired me to pull the shrimp out of the freezer and whip up a quick tasty treat for lunch. This would be wonderful on a bed of lettuce or spinach if you were trying to cut down on carbs, but I used a low fat whole wheat pita pocket/wrap as a healthy choice.

  1. Boil the pound of shrimp if not already precooked. Drain and remove the tails. If it is precooked, thaw and remove the tails.
  2. Mix 1/2 cup mashed avocado, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt and the cayenne pepper and mix until creamy. Put in the fridge and chill while you are cooking the shrimp.
  3. After the shrimp is either boiled or thawed. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet. Cook the shrimp until it gets a light golden crust.
  4. Use your favorite pita or wrap and divide the shrimp evenly up between 4 pitas. I used spinach for a nice addition to my sandwich. Top with the avocado yogurt sauce and enjoy! Makes 4 servings.
