  4. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped celery (optional) and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (optional) to the shrimp salad. Mix well.
  5. Toast your whole wheat bun lightly.
  6. Spread the shrimp salad evenly on the bottom half of the bun.
  7. Top with 1-2 slices of fresh tomato and 2-3 leaves of butter, bibb, or Boston lettuce.
