Grilled Shrimp Skewers over White Bean Salad

From EatingWell: July/August 2010

Fresh herbs make all the difference in this light, summery bean salad that in turn makes an aromatic bed for the easy grilled shrimp. The shrimp and salad are wonderful together but you could also make them separately. Consider skewering and grilling scallops as another delicious option.

I made this exactly as written and got raves from my guests. The beans were great with letuce later. Used all fresh herbs from my garden, always a good thing. Also made the Mozarella and tomato stacks fro this article - they said it was like a restaurant!

This turned out great, made exactly as instructed. I had leftovers and heated up the shrimp and remaining salad, and it was at least as good warm as it was cold. Will make again-very easy and quick, too.

I made all of the recipes in the "Farm fresh picnic" section of the magazine for a weekend at a cabin. I made the white bean salad ahead of time. We had so much food that we didn't grill the shrimp to go with the salad. But the salad was so fresh and intoxicating with the herbs that we didn't miss the shrimp. Excellent!

I was surprised at how tasty this was. I followed the recipe exactly. The celery provides a nice crunch against the creamy beans, and the shrimp (which I grilled in their shells) were delicious with it. We had all the fresh herbs in our garden, and I think some of the oregano was actually marjoram (they are right next to each other)--but whatever they were, they were great, and I think any combination of herbs would work. A summer dish!

I really enjoyed this salad and thought the herb proportions were right on. I happened to have larger shrimp on hand and no skewers so I boiled fewer shrimp than what the recipe called for instead of grilling and added them to the bean mixture in the end. Refreshing summer salad that I will definitely make again!
