Is it just me?
Or do you see Mermaid sparkles on those shrimp tails?
How CUTE is that??? I didn’t even mean to catch those sparkles in the photos.
I know, I know… I make the shit out of burgers. If you’re not familiar with my obsession go here, here, here and here. That’s actually just scratching the surface but y’all can check the rest out later.
This – is shrimp scampi on a traditional burger seasoned with Worcestershire, drizzled with a dressing made with mayo, simple cocktail sauce and lemon juice. It’s nestled on a bed of fresh spinach, which rounds the whole thing out.Â
It may be crazy, but it doesn’t matter. Y’all will LOVE this.
It’s pure insanity. The sauce is to die for; lemon juice is so good with mayo and cocktail sauce. You would think that mayo combined with cockail sauce wouldn’t need anymore acidity, but somehow it works so well.
Don’t ask me how I came up with this whole combo because I really have no answer. 
Other than I love to get all crazy in the kitchen.
