Grilled Veggie Salad

As I type this, my husband is making my favorite salad in the world. It’s also one of the most simple. We take zucchini, yellow squash, eggplant, onions and red and green peppers, slice them, brush with a little balsamic vinegar and salt and pepper and put them on the grill. That’s it. Throw them in a bowl and toss them together. I especially enjoy the grilled zucchini and yellow squash. Grilling them brings out their inherent sweetness and that combined with the balsamic vinegar is a flavor that just knocks our socks off. Asparagus and corn on the cob are also terrific grilled.
Today we’re serving the salad with burgers but many summer nights we have this grilled veggie salad by itself. It makes such a nice light meal -especially on hot nights because we cook it outside.
Really, it’s making my mouth water just thinking about it. Try it and see what I mean!

I do something similar in the oven. I slice vegetables, toss it with olive oil and herbs, into a clay baker. Then I put it in the oven to bake. The vegetables are delicious..
Yum! Definitely a keeper!
The farmer’s market is opening soon and I’m really ready for summer vegetables.
