Big Grilled Veggie Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush the vegetables with 1/4 cup of the oil to coat lightly. Sprinkle the vegetables with salt and pepper. Working in batches, grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred all over, about 8 to 10 minutes for the bell peppers; 7 minutes for the yellow squash, zucchini, eggplant, and mushrooms; 4 minutes for the asparagus and green onions. Arrange the vegetables on a platter. The key to getting those great grill marks is to not shift the vegetables too frequently once they've been placed on the hot grill.
• Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, parsley, basil, and rosemary in a small bowl to blend. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the herb mixture over the vegetables. Serve the vegetables, warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium.
• In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the vegetables, turning occasionally, until charred and tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a platter. Sprinkle with basil and feta.
• In a small bowl, mix garlic, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle over vegetables.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill.
• Toss the zucchini with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the zucchini on the grill. Grill on both sides until the zucchini is soft, 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
• Repeat this process with the onions, the onions will fall apart but don't worry about it. (Go ahead and fill up the grill with veggies!)
• Repeat this process with the tomatoes, but only grill them for about 2 minutes on each side.
• When all the veggies are grilled, cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch strips and toss into a bowl. Cut the tomatoes in half again lengthwise and toss them in with the other veggies. Coarsely chop the onions and toss them in with the others. Toss in the arugula and basil. Season the mix with salt and add the vinegar. Taste to make sure it is delicious, and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
• Place on a serving platter and sprinkle with the feta.

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: Add the cilantro, olive oil, honey, cumin, salt, avocado, lime zest and juice and hot sauce to a mason jar. With an immersion blender, blend until smooth. (This can also be made in a regular blender or food processor). Set aside.
• For the salad: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
• Toss the bell pepper, squash, asparagus, green beans and red onion with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Grill the veg until well-marked and cooked, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the vegetables to a cutting board. Slice into equal-sized strips/pieces.
• Add the lettuce to a large platter. Add the grilled peppers, squash, asparagus, green beans and red onion in little piles on top, along with the tomatoes and hard-boiled egg quarters. Sprinkle around the bacon and cubed cheese. Serve with the vinaigrette on the side. Can be served warm or at room temperature.
