  • Grill the potatoes until they have golden brown grill marks, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • In a large bowl, combine the spinach, cilantro, shrimp, potatoes, red bell pepper and cucumber. Toss with the dressing. Divide the salad between 4 plates. Serve.

The Dressing:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the orange and lemon juices, olive oil, agave, salt and pepper.
