This was wonderful! Before I tasted it I told myself, “I’ll try to make this anytime we have the grill going” after I tried it I thought, “I will light the grill specifically to make this.” This salad was so good I even called my mom to tell her about it. Then just ended up taking her a bowl over so she could try it. The char on the veggies gives you the feeling that you are eating meat. Thank you for the recipe!
