These cheesy shrimp tea sandwiches were super easy to make and uber delicious. You can’t go wrong with this list of ingredients!

I invited my sisters and their families over for dinner this past Sunday and they were all raving about these fantastic little tea sandwiches. You’ll want to pin these for future reference!

My husband’s cousin, Angelina shared this recipe with us for her “shrimp sandwiches.” Thanks Angelina for another great recipe. New favorite for sure! P.S. Angelina is also the genius behind:

1. Easy bread kvas

2. Braised cabbage with beef

3. Canned Veggie Assortment

I am so blessed to know some fabulous cooks! Thanks so much for sharing!

Ingredients for Shrimp and Cheese Canapés: 

1/2 lb cooked shrimp plus more for garnish (the extra for garnish is totally optional and completely unnecessary lol)
1 long Baguette bread
1/2 cup Mayo
2 cloves garlic
1/2 bunch parsley
1/2 bunch dill (fresh or frozen)
1 cup of three cheese Mexican blend shredded cheese

3. Cut your bread into 1/2-inch slices. Spread the mixture generously over the bread slices, place it in the oven at 350˚F to melt the cheese and sizzle the shrimp a tad (8-10 minutes).

You can really jazz these up by adding a sautéed shrimp over the top, but they’re just as good without it. I was trying really hard to be fancy. I served these on Sunday without the extra shrimp. No one cared. They were too busy gobbling these up.
