Roasted corn, avocado and shrimp salad

It is beginning to heat up here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.  Tonight I just did not want to heat up the kitchen.  This salad with a few slices of french bread were perfect.   Open a bottle of wine and enjoy on your deck in the sun.

Salad:

• 2 ears of sweet corn, shaved off the cob
• 3 strips of bacon, cooked and dice
• 1/2 lb. large shrimp, peeled with tails on or off
• 4 cups chopped Romaine lettuce
• 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced
• 1/3 cup grated Fontina cheese (optional)

• 1/2 cup mayo or Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup pesto
• 1 small shallot, minced

Combine all ingredient well with a whisk.
