Directions:
In a small bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, shallot, honey, mustard, and pepper.
In a large bowl, combine lettuce mixes, blanched asparagus, cranberries, blue cheese, and candied pecans.
In a large Dutch oven, pour oil to a depth of 2 inches; heat to 360˚. Fry shrimp, in batches if necessary, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

Personal Notes:
I just use the frozen shrimp and bake them. However, I think it would be even better with grilled shrimp. I love the blue cheese in the salad, and the dressing is delicious.
