Grilled Shrimp Caesar Sandwich

My Weight Watchers magazine has such yummy recipes in it. You would think not because most think that WW is nothing but another fad diet, but that is completely untrue. WW is simply learning to eat the right way and paying attention to what you are eating throughout the day. I was so excited to find a Caesar meal that did not have a ton of fat! Everyone knows that Caesar salad dressing is a killer in the diet department! Have a look at this quick, lean sandwich recipe!

Grilled Shrimp Caesar Sandwich

Ingredients:

1 (12 oz) baguette (we used a roll type of bread, smaller than a hoagie bun, bigger than a roll)
1/2 lb medium peeled and deveined shrimp (we used already cooked shrimp)
1/4 tsp salt
3 Tbsp fat-free mayo
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 cup thinly sliced romaine lettuce

Directions:

Spray ridged grill pan with nonstick spray and set over medium heat. Split baguette without cutting completely through. Remove soft center and discard. Cut into 4 pieces. Place bread slices, cut side down on pan. Grill until toasted, 1 minute. 

Spray shrimp with nonstick spray and sprinkle with salt. Grill until cooked through, 2 minutes per side.

Whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice, Parmesan, Worcestershire, garlic and pepper in small bowl. Spread, bread with mayonnaise mixture; place lettuce on bottom of bread and top with shrimp.
