Faith’s Best-Ever Bacon-Corn-Shrimp Rolls

We think Faith’s shrimp roll rivals even the best lobster shack roll. The shrimp is more affordable and the celery, onions, and corn-from-the-cob add texture and make this an extra summery sandwich. A little heat from the cayenne and the lime make it memorable. And YES. . .because of those two ingredients in particular, the salad mixture is better after sitting for a while or even the next day once all the flavors in the salad have melded. Expect a subtle heat and that lime to really come through.

We love a good buttery lobster roll too, but this sandwich is more of an everyday shrimp salad. Not that you'll eat it everyday (though, you might want to). A better idea: invite a few friends over for lunch!
