Ingredients

Grilled Shrimp

Green Onion Vinaigrette

Salad and Veggies

  • 6 cups mixed leafy greens
  • ½ cup radishes, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup kalamata olives
  • ½ cup cucumber, diced
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
  • ½ cup sweet peppers, sliced
  • 1 small avocado, sliced

Instructions

Grilled Shrimp

  • Toss the shrimp with avocado oil, kosher salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
    Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill shrimp for 3–4 minutes, turning once, until pink, opaque, and lightly charred.
    Remove from the grill, immediately toss with fresh lemon juice, and set aside.

Green Onion Vinaigrette

  • Add all vinaigrette ingredients except the feta to a food processor.
    Pulse until mostly smooth, leaving a little texture if desired. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
    Transfer to a bowl and gently stir in the feta. Set aside to let the flavors meld.

Grilled Shrimp Salad Assembly

  • Toss the greens and vegetables together in a large serving bowl.
    Drizzle with the green onion vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.
    Top with grilled shrimp and finish with extra feta, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Add 1-2 teaspoons of honey or maple syrup to the dressing if you would like it to be a little sweeter.
