Chipotle Shrimp Salad with Cilantro Line Vinaigrette, by Cheryl

Dressing not pictured

This was a solid salad! It was filling, healthy, and had all the right flavors! It was definitely spicier than I had intended.. I had thought my 9 year old would eat it with us, but the shrimp was too much for her. So she substituted in some grilled chicken. But the dressing and the avocado cooled things down. Another winner from Paleo Running Momma. Yum!

Ingredients:

Dressing:

1/3 cup avocado or olive oil

Juice of small, or 2 large limes

1 tb honey

1 tb minced fresh jalapeno

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/3 cup cilantro leaves

1/4 tsp salt

Salad:

1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined

1.5 tbs avocado or olive oil

1 tsp chipotle chili powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp salt

6 cups romaine lettuce

3 radishes, thinly sliced

1 nectarine or peach, thinly sliced

1 avocado, thinly sliced

Directions:

1) Dressing: Place all ingredients in a blender and pulse several times until desired consistency. Set aside.

2) Place the shrimp in a large bowl. Toss with the olive and spices and salt. Grill on skewers.

3) Arrange the other ingredients in a small bowl. Put the shrimp on top. Drizzle the dressing and serve.
