Day 3 - Spa Shrimp Sandwich

Best laid plans...I thought I was defrosting salmon...turns out it was shrimp. This is all I had to work with- half a baguette in the freezer, 1 lb of defrosted shrimp, half a bag of baby spinach and a red pepper. The night before grocery shopping is always a challenge. I like to call this my "un-fried" Spa Shrimp Sandwich. Serves 4
