Grilled Honey Lime Shrimp and Vegetables
Grilled Honey Lime Shrimp and Vegetables cooks in less than 15 minutes and is full of delicious grilled honey lime marinated shrimp, pineapple, peppers, corn on the cob and onions!
My list of grilling recipes that I want to make this summer is a mile long and I am soaking up all things summer as I know that it always goes by so fast. Each year, we try to grill shrimp a couple of times and I created this delicious honey lime vinaigrette marinade for shrimp and vegetables to cook on the grill. Grilled Honey Lime Shrimp and Vegetables are easy to make and family friendly. My kids, husband and I all really enjoyed it!
I love shrimp because they cook really quickly, are a great source of protein and are very lean. We don't eat them all the time due to being a little more expensive than other sources of protein which makes them a treat every time we get to enjoy them. Adalyn especially is my big shrimp lover. For this recipe, I used these different vegetables but feel free to throw in any veggies that would cook well on the grill. I also used fresh pineapple for sweetness and knowing that it would be awesome with the marinade. The sky is the limit! I think that pea pods, broccoli or green beans would be yummy in this recipe too.

Marinating Honey Lime Shrimp
I marinated these honey lime shrimp and vegetables the night before I wanted to cook them. You can also do that or marinate for at least an hour before so that the shrimp and vegetables can really soak up all of the delicious marinade. I created a little vinaigrette with fresh lime juice, honey, olive oil (or any oil you like), garlic and onion powder. It was super delicious on these shrimp and vegetables. Make sure you don't skip the fresh pineapple. That was my favorite part of this dish! Something about grilling the pineapple with the marinade is the absolute best.Meijer LGPA Classic
