Mixed Grill Salad


Summertime! Time for grilled corn, squash and zucchini. All favorite vegetables of mine. This is a simple side dish that I served with a grilled ham steak and some fluffy biscuits. This dish was the star of the plate, even though it was a "side" dish.

Mixed Grilled Salad

2 zucchini
2 yellow squash
2 ears of corn
1 oz black olives (or your favorite)
2 oz feta cheese
2-3 tablespoons of Italian Dressing
non-stick spray or olive oil

Slice the zucchini and yellow squash lengthwise. Spray the cut surface with a non-stick spray or rub olive oil on it. On a hot grill place each zucchini and squash cut surface down. Let cook for about 10 minutes. Grill corn using Julie's method found HERE.

Once grilled, slice each zucchini and squash again lengthwise and then into 1 inch chunks. Stand corn on it's end and with a knife, carefully slice the kernels off the cob. Mix in a bowl. Add feta cheese, black olives, and dressing. Stir and serve. Serves about 4.

  1. This is exactly like a pasta salad that I make but I have pasta in place of your zucchini & Squash. Add Pasta to your dish and you have one heck of a meal. Next time I make the pasta salad I will add in the zucchini and squash... Yum!
