    What to Serve with Shrimp Burgers

    Jump to Recipe

    If you are trying to figure out what to serve with shrimp burgers for dinner, this list is exactly what you are looking for. Burgers are a family favorite and a hearty hot sandwich on their own.  We typically find that they only need a quick side to make a complete meal. Therefore, you will want to pick the best easy side dish to go with what your family enjoys. There are desserts too. 

    Whether you want a salad, fruits, vegetables, or potatoes, we have you covered with so many choices on what to enjoy with your next seafood burger or patties. These sides are great for backyard barbecues, cookouts at the beach, park, or tailgate parties, or even for a weeknight dinner. Whether you buy my favorite Trader Joe's Shrimp Burgers or make them homemade, enjoy a tasty one also with sauce and topping ideas.

      Burgers and fries are matchmaking for sure. I made the sweet potato fries. It took a bit longer to make them then I had thought so our burgers got cold. I know to start earlier since I had to make 3 batches in my little deep frier. My fault not the recipe.
