Grilled Sausage with Figs and Mixed Greens

We had this for dinner tonight - it was excellent and super, quick and easy to make.
Serves 4.

Salad:
6 fresh lamb sausages, spicy Italian sausage, or garlic sausage.
Red onion slices
12 cups and of baby greens
3/4 cup goat cheese or feta
12 fresh figs, sliced
1/4 cup of freshly packed mint

Dressing:
7 1/2 T  of extra-virgin olive oil
4 1/2 T of balsamic vinegar
3 T of mint
1/2 C of pomegranate seeds
1 T ground cumin
2 Shallots

Place in food processor and process until smooth.

Prepare grill (medium high heat)  Brush sausage and onions with 3 T of dressing; grill sausage until cooked, about 15 minutes, and until onions are charred, 10 minutes.  Toss greens with the remaining dressing; mound on the plate. Slice sausage and place on top of salad. Top with cheese, figs and mint.

This goes great with some fresh whole grain bread or a couple of ears of corn.

Let me know, once you make this, what you think.
