DINNER ON THE GRILL

I hope that everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend!  The weather wasn't the best here on Sunday and Monday but the sun did come out in the afternoon yesterday.  I decided that since the weather wasn't great and I had some time, I would make crab cakes for dinner.  I drove to Whole Foods to get crabmeat and they didn't have any and it would be Wednesday before any more came in... so I came up with Plan B.  Shrimp Salad sounded good to me, but the tuna was beautiful so I got some of both.  I also bought a pineapple and some squash.  I expected to freeze either the tuna or the shrimp, but it didn't end up that way.  Once the shrimp were peeled and deveined, I realized that I wasn't going to have much shrimp salad so I decided to grill the tuna also.  I threw the pineapple on the grill with the tuna and sauteed the squash inside.  It really turned out to be a nice meal.   I'm still craving crab cakes though!  The recipe for the shrimp salad is below.

The tuna, pineapple and squash all went on one platter and it was a nice presentation!

I bought fresh Georgia shrimp for the shrimp salad and it was really delicious!  The leftovers will be great for lunch today!
