Looking for a quick and easy lunch or supper idea? Here’s a super easy no-cook recipe for WW Friendly Low-Fat Tex-Mex Shrimp Rolls that comes together in minutes.
Just stir together cooked shrimp, scallions, salsa, mayonnaise, cilantro and salt and scoop into a whole grain roll.
A longtime lover of Maine Lobster Rolls, this recipe for Tex-Mex shrimp rolls caught my eye as I was scanning through the Weight Watchers Family Meals: 250 Recipes for Bringing Family, Friends, and Food Together (affiliate link) cookbook for a quick and easy lunch option earlier this week.
This super quick and easy no-cook recipe with minimal ingredients was just what I was looking for. And as luck would have it, shrimp were even on special when I shopped.
Served with a few corn chips and salsa on the side, everyone gave these shrimp rolls an enthusiastic thumbs up.
Recipe Notes
Just stir together cooked shrimp, scallions, salsa, mayonnaise, cilantro and salt and scoop into a whole grain roll. Lunch or supper doesn’t get much easier.
This tasty shrimp mixture would also be good stuffed into pita bread, wrapped in a tortilla or whole grain wrap or lavash, or atop a bed of salad greens.
High in protein and low in fat, 3 ounces of cooked shrimp has 0 WW Points.
Substitute cooked lobster, crab or chunks of white fish for the shrimp, with no change in Points value.
Change up the flavor with a variety of salsas. I used basic tomato salsa, but tomatillo, fruit or a corn and black bean salsa would all work well.
Make them spicier with the addition of chopped jalapeño or a splash or two of your favorite hot sauce.
I thought the recipe as written was a little heavy on the mayo and salsa, so I would use less next time. I would also add more shrimp next time too, since it’s so low in WW Points.
If you’re not a fan of fat-free mayonnaise, substitute equal parts mayonnaise and non-fat Greek yogurt to keep it light.

Used dried cilantro as I did not have fresh on hand, added some fresh cubed avocado and finely chopped cabbage and used this shrimp salad in whole wheat low carb tortillas for shrimp tacos. Delicious!
