I just made the shrimp salad sandwiches, and my family loved them. I made them with clam chowder. I tried regular rolls and a few hawaiian rolls. I think the hawaiian rolls beat the taste test. The hot pepper really add a nice pop of flavor.

Since I chose to make these at the last minute, I didn't have everything, but this is such a great recipe that it can stand up to being used as a springboard! No jalapeno seeds for us, but a freshly picked jalapeno with great flavor and the perfect amount of heat made this taste great. Having a jar of commercial Balsamic Onion Jam in the cupboard took away half the prep and it tasted fantastic! I was doing grilled shrimp for another recipe, so I grilled these and the roasty flavor added another great flavor. Served on a Graze-for-Lunch fingerfood buffet with baguette slices, done open-face as needed. Delish!
