Grilled Vegetable Salad with Giant Hot Croutons
Feb 22, 2024 02:07 PM
This grilled vegetable salad is perfectly charred vegetables and giant warm croutons all tossed in a simple balsamic vinaigrette. All it takes is 2 bowls, 1 whisk, and 30 minutes to make. Throw some protein on the grill with the veggies and call it dinner!
This is one of those side dishes that is perfect to serve when guests come over and easy enough to make quickly when you get home from a long day at work. It's the best of both worlds.
The BBQ does most of the work turning the veggies into smoky little flavor bites. Once they come off the grill, they're tossed in a simple balsamic vinaigrette and voilà, you have yourself a delicious grilled vegetable salad!
