A very good vegetarian sandwiche so refresing and so tasty. I enjoyed it without changing anything. I used frozen shrimp and at the second one I added some arugula. The cucumber was perfect with the avocado butter. One of my co-workers asked for the recipe at once. Thanks Leslie for posting! Its a keeper!
