Shrimp and Egg Salad

A favorite egg salad, made very simply with the addition of shrimp, green onion, celery and mayonnaise. Serve with crackers, as a sandwich, or stuffed into a tomato. Light and delicious!

Shrimp and Egg Salad


Today's post is a 4-in-one. They sort of all went together so rather than reserve them for different days, I thought that I would post them all together at the same time. Click each link below to visit them all.

First we have Absolutely Perfect Shrimp & Crab Boil, followed by a yummy Easy Cocktail Sauce and a Speedy White Rémoulade Sauce for dipping, and then well, what else does one do when one has leftover boiled shrimp?

Maybe Shrimp Remoulade? Or some Pickled Shrimp? Maybe Marinated Shrimp? Or a pasta salad with shrimp, like Shrimp and Macaroni Salad and Shrimp with Bowtie Pasta, both perfect for leftover boiled shrimp.

Dang y'all. Now I'm hungry!

All of those are excellent choices of course, but truly one of my most favorite things to do is to make a very simple Shrimp & Egg Salad!

A favorite egg salad, made very simply with the addition of shrimp, green onion, celery and mayonnaise. Serve with crackers, as a sandwich, or stuffed into a tomato. Light and delicious!

This is one thing my Mama made often because she loved it so much. In fact, I think that when she made it, she actually tried to hide it from us kids!

Course... that never worked. Not with me anyway.


So, this is her way of making Shrimp and Egg Salad, though mostly down south we really just refer to this as Shrimp Salad. Very simple, but oh, so good.


My favorite way to eat this is simply spread on saltines, but it is a great sandwich filling and very well received as tiny crust trimmed, finger sandwiches at a party. It is also excellent on those mini croissants, but, it's equally good on top of a bed of nice mixed lettuces and served with some fresh garden tomato wedges on the side.


So boil some eggs and make this lovely shrimp and egg salad - maybe stuffed into a nice ripe tomato, for lunch!
