When the temperature rises it's time to get out of the kitchen!

Grilling need not be limited to hamburgers, hot dogs, or steak. With the proper preparation almost any meat will cook well on the grill.

Today's choices include: Shrimp Grill, Tuscan Bread Salad, Herbed Turkey Cutlets, Salmon with Dill, Honey Mustard Steaks with Onions.

SHRIMP GRILL

1 oz. dried tomatoes, without salt, 1-1/2 lb. lg. shrimp, 2 T. lemon juice, 2 T. olive oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper

Place dried tomatoes in small bowl. Pour 1 cup boiling water over tomatoes; let stand while preparing shrimp. Meanwhile, cut off legs from shrimp. Insert tip of kitchen shears under shell of each shrimp and snip along back through to tail, cutting about 1/4 inch deep to expose dark vein. Leaving shell on, rinse shrimp to remove vein. Place shrimp in bowl. Drain dried tomatoes, reserving 1/4 cup soaking liquid. In blender or in food processor with knife blade attached, blend tomatoes with reserved soaking liquid, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper until well blended. Pour over shrimp. On four long skewers, thread shrimp. Place skewers on grill over medium heat; cook 8 to 10 minutes until shrimp turn opaque throughout, turning skewers occasionally and dabbing with any remaining tomato mixture. Makes six main dish servings.
