Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Wash the baby potatoes and cut them in half. Toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned potatoes on the grill, cut side down, and cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they are tender and have grill marks.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, toss the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
Place the shrimp on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink and cooked through. Remove the potatoes and shrimp from the grill when done, and set aside.
For the spinach mousse, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the baby spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until wilted.
Transfer the cooked spinach to a blender. Add the heavy cream, cream cheese, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Spoon the spinach mousse onto plates as a base. Arrange the grilled potatoes and shrimp on top.
Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm and enjoy!
