Are you wondering what to make with all of those fresh veggies from your Garden? If you planted Cucumbers, and fresh Chives this Summer then this Shrimp Salad Sandwich is the perfect Recipe for you.
This easy shrimp salad recipe can be made in 10 minutes.

If you don't have a Garden no worries just head over to the produce aisle of your local supermarket and grab some Fresh Cucumber and Chives.
This Shrimp Salad Sandwich is a blend of Tender Shrimp, Homegrown Veggies and Fresh Seasonings all coated in a Creamy Light Dressing.
One of my most favorite things to eat during the Summertime are Lobster Rolls which I usually indulge in on weekend trips to the Lobster Roll in Montauk.
This Shrimp Salad Sandwich is the perfect Home Made Alternative and even more Refreshing with the Fresh Cucumber and Chives.
Are you a Weight Watcher?
This Shrimp Salad Sandwich Recipe is only 3 points on the Weight Watchers program. Serving Size for this Shrimp Salad Sandwich is about a half a cup scoop of the Shrimp Salad on a Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun.
If you are like me and trying to Cut Carbs by limiting Bread, eliminate the Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun which is 2 points and serve yourself a Scoop on a Bed of Fresh Leafy Greens to make it a 1 point meal.
For another fun festive twist try using a 6" Inch Corn Tortilla Wrap in place of the Hot Dog Bun as they are about 1- ¼ points per Tortilla on the WW App, and they are Delicious with a Scoop of the Shrimp Salad.
There are a lot of options, so be creative and use what you like.

Quick and Easy Shrimp Salad Sandwich with Cucumber
- Total Time: 10 minutes
- Yield: 1 lb of shrimp salad 1x
Description
A Light and Delicious Shrimp Salad
Ingredients
- I like to make a Batch of Shrimp Salad and portion it so I used a One pound bag of Frozen Shrimp - I buy the frozen bag of large shrimp at Trader Joes which is already cleaned and has the the tail off for convenience. I pour the bag of frozen shrimp in a bowl and run them under hot water for a couple of minutes to thaw then drain off the water.
- One Fresh Cucumber Peeled and Chopped
Fresh Peeled Cucumber
- 4 Tablespoons of the Reduced Calorie Mayonnaise
- One half of an uncooked red onion
- One tablespoon of fresh squeezed lemon juice
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of Black Pepper
- A pinch of celery seed
- Fresh Cut Chives
- Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Buns - or swap for a Bed of Lettuce - or some Corn Tortillas
Instructions
- Take your defrosted shrimp and place them in a pan with a little splash of Olive oil and some diced onion and garlic and saute for 5 minutes. Then set aside
Sauteeing the Shrimp
- This part works best if you own a Mini Ninja Chopper or something similar. Take about ¼ of the sautéed shrimp with a couple of pieces of Cucumber and red onion and put them in your chopper and mince. It only takes a couple of seconds. Place the minced shrimp, cucumber and red onion in a large bowl and set aside.
- Now take your remaining Cucumber and Red Onion and chop into small pieces and add them to the Mini Ninja Chopper and Mince. You probably cannot fit the entire cucumber and red onion in the chopper all at once so empty the first round into the bowl with the minced shrimp and then mince the rest of the cucumber and red onion batch and when that is complete add to your bowl.
Adding the Ingredients to the Mini Chopper
- Add in the remaining sautéed shrimp to your bowl.
- Add in your Reduced Calorie Mayonnaise, Lemon juice, Salt, Pepper and Celery Seed and Mix together well. I made a portion spicy with a dash of Cayenne.
- *Adjust to your taste but note adding additional Mayo will up your WW points as Reduced Calorie Mayo is 3 points for every 2 tablespoons.
- Scoop out a serving of the Shrimp Salad and place on a Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun or be creative and try a Tortilla Wrap or Bed of Lettuce. Then garnish with Fresh Chives. Enjoy!!!!
Double up!
Notes
- Note: If you do not own an Electric Mini Chopper you can mince the Shrimp, Cucumber & Red Onion by hand. But you really should get one as you can mince in seconds and it minces everything so finely that it enhances the flavors of everything...and they are pretty inexpensive. *Nutrition information provided is for the shrimp salad only.

I made your recipe for dinner tonight. Since it was only for myself I scaled back the ingredients. I had dried chives in so that was my one ingredient difference plus I didn't pulse anything since I didn't have a lot. I wanted to tell you how delicious the recipe is. The cucumber is the "secret ingredient" that throws the flavor over the top. It would have guests saying it's the best shrimp salad they ever had...how did you make it? Thank you for posting the recipe.
