Grilled Shrimp Salad with Honey-Lime Dressing

Pineapple, shrimp, and lime are a great salad combination, but grilling them first adds a whole new dimension to this salad.

For dressing, whisk together all ingredients and set aside (or use mini food processor). Drizzle shrimp and pineapple with oil and sprinkle with some of the pepper medley. Thread shrimp onto skewers and heat grill (or can broil in oven).

Grill until lightly browned and heated throughout. Cut pineapple into chunks, remove shrimp from skewers and set aside. Divide salad greens and cilantro between 4 bowls, and top with shrimp and pineapple pieces. Drizzle with dressing, and gently toss.
