Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 fresh tomatoes ripe but firm, such as Roma or beefsteak
  • 24 small cooked shrimp already cleaned
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise store-bought or homemade
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Fresh herbs such as dill or parsley, finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Cut the tomatoes into wedges. I get about 3 wedges out of a roma tomato. Remove the seeds and insides.
  • Mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard together and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, place the tomato wedges on a platter.
  • Add a spoonful of sauce to each wedge. Top with 2 shrimps.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with some chopped fresh herbs.

Notes

  • If the tomatoes are especially juicy, dry them with a paper towel before adding the sauce so it doesn't run.
