Cheesy Cauliflower "Grits" and Shrimp

This recipe is so delicious!  I could eat it once a week!  It's extremely low cal and very low in carbs!
To make this dish you will need:
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 cup low sodium teriyaki sauce
1 head of cauliflower
2 tablespoon mixed herbs (I used basil, parsley & oregano)
1/3 cup Weight Watchers Mexican blend cheese
Dashes of hot sauce
salt and pepper to taste
1 red pepper, diced
bunch of chopped scallions
1 tomato, diced
1.)  In a baggie, combine the shrimp and the teriyaki sauce.  Allow to marinate for a few hours.
2.)  Cut the leaves off the cauliflower.  Either steam the cauliflower until soft or cook in your microwave until tender.
3.)  Put the cauliflower through your food processor to puree.  Add the herbs, cheese, hot sauce, salt and pepper.  Set aside.
4.)  In a microwave safe dish put the red pepper, the scallions and the tomato.  Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until soft.
5.)  On a grill over medium heat, grill the shrimp until done for approximately 5 minutes.
6.)  Put a mound of the cauliflower on the plate.  Top with the grilled shrimp in the center.  Sprinkle with the peppers, scallions and tomato.  Enjoy!
