Notes
Make-Ahead Tip: Shrimp salad can be made several hours in advance, stored in an airtight container, and refrigerated. Sandwiches can be assembled without tomatoes a few hours in advance, covered with damp paper towels, placed in a covered container, and refrigerated until serving time. Add tomato slices just before serving.
