I have a major affinity for grilled or roasted vegetables. Throw any combination together with a little olive oil, cook it at a high heat, and I will love it. But this combination was especially good – so I have to share.
This is what we had for dinner last night. It was so stinkin’ good that Meeker had part of the leftovers for breakfast this morning, and I had the rest for lunch.
Onto the grill went:
- 3 beets, chopped
- 2 red bell peppers
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 red potatoes, sliced
- 1 fennel bulb, sliced
- 3 zucchini, sliced
I drizzled them with olive oil first, and then grilled each one until it had some nice char to it. Then I dressed it all with equal parts Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, and olive oil – one tablespoon of each. Topped it off with a little blue cheese…hallelujah. Best salad I’ve ever made.
And I’ve made a lot of salad in my life. So trust me.
I can’t get enough grilled veggies. We had leftover peppers, onion, zucchini and mushrooms that I tossed with some quinoa and white beans, and topped with goat cheese–so good!
Yum that looks really good… and anything with blue cheese… love it.
You won me over as soon as I saw the beets. I’ve been thinking about beets all day long. That looks amazing.
Yay for beets and your beautiful salad!! You’ve convinced me to make a grilled veggie salad.
Oh man. This salad may be hodge podge, but it looks AMAZING!!!
Mmmm, same here- grilled and roasted veggies are the absolute best, and totally make a meal. I need to do more roasting, but it’s so darned hot during summer that I’m reluctant to turn on the oven. Have you ever grilled veg on a George Foreman grill?
Mmmmm. That’s one good lookin’ salad! Way better than I pictured when you told me you had it!
I love grilled vegetables in my salads – this looks incredible!
Oh yes, I entered. Thrice, I entered.
Yummy salad! Grilled veg are the best!
Any salad topped with blue cheese has been my go-to lately. I should use it more at home. YUM!
Grilling and roasting definitely brings out the best in veg
I love grilled veggies so much. It brings out the flavours so well and makes them taste even more delicious! This one looks amazing!
Oh my goodness, this looks divine! I love, love, love grilled veggies!
Those veggies look fabulous! Bleu cheese is the best!
Yuuuum that looks like something I would looooooove.
Oh my gosh…for a second…I thought I was at MY blog. Tuesday’s post!
Grilled veggies are delish! Looks so good!
This looks absolutely divine!! Yum-oh.
