I made this last week and it was really good and filling. I put some fat free cottage on the side and it was a really good meal.

I get sick of the plain old salad over and over and over boring. This sounds like a great variation from the old standard. I really don't like really cold salad either. So the warm shrimp over the top would be a great change. I bet it makes for great leftovers. Just warm up the shrimp and dressing and have the next day too. Sounds easy to make just pop it under the broiler and then add to the pan. Thanks for a great lunch idea for next week:)
