Shrimp and Veggie Mini Skewers

We ate these so fast that I didn't even have a chance to take a picture, they were that good!  I think the only thing I might have done differently is add an additional side or make more of the skewers because it didn't fill me up as much as I would have hoped.  A tossed greens salad or greek salad would be really good on the side. 

Shrimp & Veggie Mini Skewers

Ingredients:
1/2 lb peeled raw shrimp
1-2 bell peppers
1/2 onion
Italian dressing/marinade
quinoa
mini-skewers

Instructions:
Put the shrimp in a container and cover with the marinade about 1-2 hours before cooking the skewers.  Chop the vegetables into larger chunks and start constructing the skewers by alternating different vegetables and the shrimp.  Place skewers in a heated skillet or grill.  Cook the quinoa by the box instructions.  Take the skewers off the grill or skillet once the shrimp is pink.  Put skewers on a plate over the quinoa and serve!
