This salad is hearty enough on its own as a delicious summertime dinner or lunch. It can be made in just 35 minutes and will soon become one of your go-to favorite grilling recipes. Marinating the shrimp ahead of time imparts extra flavor in this refreshing salad. The marinade is a simple mixture of garlic, ginger, and soy sauce. Just be sure not to let the shrimp marinate for too long, as it doesn't need to go for hours like traditional proteins. While that's happening, toss the noodles with spinach, mung bean sprouts, mint, scallions, and carrots. Grill the shrimp, add it to the salad, and it's all ready to go.
