Dilled Shrimp and Egg Salad Wraps
Hey guys,
Tonight we bring you my latest strange recipe. Oh come on, by now it's pretty well known that your blog mistress like out of left field recipes. Food combos that just make you go wtf or hmm? The recipe I have picked this week is no exception. It's pairing 3 things that you never would've thought had food chemistry but they just may fit well together. Oh, and I found this recipe in the latest Women's World magazine. Enough chit chat let's get this started.
Here's what you'll need:
Dilled Shrimp and Egg Salad Wraps
PREP TIME: 10 Min
TOTAL TIME: 10 Min
SERVINGS: 4
Ingredients:
*4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
*1 cup chopped cooked shrimp
*1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill weed
*2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
*3 tablespoons creamy mustard-mayonnaise sauce
*1/4 teaspoon salt
*4 flour tortillas (8 inches in diameter)
*2 cups shredded lettuce
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients except tortillas and lettuce in medium bowl.
2. Spread shrimp mixture evenly on each tortilla; top with lettuce. Fold in sides of each wrap; roll up. Cut each in half.
3. Serve immediately, or wrap each sandwich in plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving, up to 24 hours.
WW Points: *8 Per serving
These were really amazing. My only issue, well not really issue more like personal preference is next time I think the filling should be refrigerated for a bit before placing it in the tortilla.
Tid Bits:
*If you don't like shrimp then try using crab.
*You can also get the small salad shrimp instead of cutting up bigger shrimp. Saves some time.
*If you can't find the creamy mustard-mayonnaise sauce? Make your own by mixing together mayo and dijon mustard.
Ma's Spot: What a light and refreshing dinner for the summertime. Oh hell lets face it I would eat this in the winter. It's delicious. I like the switch of using the mustard mayo rather than using the regular mayo. It gives it a nice tangy taste. I also like that you can make this recipe ahead and keep it in the fridge on those days that are really busy. So mix this up and enjoy. You won't regret it.
*SNACK CORNER:* It's time for snack corner! Where we take new snacks in the grocery store and break it down for you. We tell you which are hot and which are not. Let's get to this week's pick:
WW Points: *4 for 21 chips
Dinah: Tonight we bring you the latest chip from Pillsbury...wait, actually Pillsbury really has never done a chip before. So that would mean these are the first chips ever from them. Ah, well better to catch that now rather than continue on looking like a schmuck. Anywho, we tried the Pillsbury Baguette Chips Italian Cheese & Herb. These are ridiculously good. I had the can't eat just one chip syndrome hit me like a mad truck with these. I ended up using 8 points on these in one sitting. Told you, deadly.
If you're a fan of the bagel chips (I used to hate them because most brands had the worst texture and flavors) then you really need to try these. Just remember to keep some sort of control, lost mine pretty easily after the first chip.
Ma: When I saw these in the Meijer sale paper I thought "wow, those look good, I'm going to give them a try" and I'm glad I did. To quote Lays potato chips you can't eat just one. These are amazingly good. Dinah and I couldn't stop snacking on them. So if you're looking for a different kind of snack these are the ones to pick up. It doesn't hurt that these are 50% less fat than regular potato chips. Don't wait till you get to your car to try these, open them on the way to your car and get to snacking on these.
That's all folks, we'll see you here next Tuesday for another recipe and all around good times. Have a great week guys!
