Servings: persons

4 croissants (you can also use whole wheat bread, but I prefer croissants)
4 slices white cheddar cheese
12 lb cooked shrimp, peeled and fine chopped
1 shallot, fine chopped
1 celery rib, fine chopped
⅛ cup sliced black olives
12 avocado, thin sliced
1 small tomatoes, cut in 4 slices
2 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (if you don't want to use the yogurt, you can use 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise)
½ teaspoon chipotle chile in adobo, fine chopped (more or less according to taste)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, fine chopped (more or less according to taste)
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
salt
pepper

1
Shrimp Salad -- In a medium size bowl, add the mayonnaise, yogurt (you can use all mayonnaise if you want, but I love the light flavor the yogurt adds.
2
Also, if you like your salad a bit creamier, just add a bit more mayonnaise or yogurt.
3
Stir in the lime juice, chipotle, salt and pepper and add in the cilantro, celery, olives, onion and diced shrimp.
4
Toss well to combine.
5
Sandwiches -- Just pile high.
6
Shrimp salad, then avocado, tomato and cheese.
7
Now croissants have plenty of butter in them, so just spray your grill pan or saute pan with a little non stick spray.
8
If using whole wheat bread, I like to butter each side of the bread slices and then grill.
9
If you don't want to grill, this is also just as good served cold with lettuce.
10
When grilling I weigh them down slightly but not too much and grill just until the bread or croissant is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
11
Using a heaving pan is a simple way to weigh them down.
12
One NOTE: These are great served open face as well.
13
Just Enjoy!
