Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 2 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium eggplant
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cups mixed greens
- 100 grams feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Wash and prepare the vegetables. Slice the zucchini and eggplant into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Cut the red bell peppers into quarters and remove the seeds. Trim the woody ends off the asparagus.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the zucchini, red bell peppers, eggplant, and asparagus with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
Place the vegetables on the grill in a single layer. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks. Remove from the grill and let them cool slightly.
While the vegetables are cooling, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, minced garlic clove, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Roughly chop the grilled vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens and chopped grilled vegetables. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss gently to coat.
Crumble the feta cheese over the salad.
Serve immediately and enjoy this fresh, smoky, and tangy dish!
