Ingredients
- olive oil
- 4 zucchini
- 2 bell peppers, red and/or yellow
- 3 Pita bread pockets
- 1 1/2 cups cucumber, peeled and chopped into 3/4-inch cubes
- 1 large tomato, chopped
- 3/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 cup Kalamata olives, pitted or halved
- 1/2 cup fresh chopped mint
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 3/4 cup crumbled Feta cheese
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 juicy lemon, squeezed
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high. Half the zucchinis, length-wise. Cut the peppers into large pieces and remove seeds. Separate the layers of the pitas to make 6 pita circles.
- Drizzle olive oil over the zucchini, peppers, and pitas. Then salt and pepper to taste. Roll them around, to make sure they have a good coating of oil. Grill the veggies for about 2-3 minutes per side, until nice grill marks have formed and the veggies are slightly tender. Then grill the pitas, for 30-60 seconds per side, until toasty.
- In a large serving bowl, add all the other veggies, olives, and herbs. Once the grilled vegetables have cooled, chop them into 3/4-inch cubes and add them to the serving bowl.
- Break the pitas into bite-size pieces and add to the mix. Toss the salad and sprinkle the feta over the top.
- Mix 1/4 cup of olive oil and the juice of one lemon in a small bowl. Season with cumin, then salt and pepper to taste. Whisk well. Drizzle over the salad and serve.

Notes
- Mediterranean grilled vegetable salad is best enjoyed shortly after preparing so the pita pieces stay nice and crisp. However, you can store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Just note that the veggies will begin to get a bit soggy after a day or so.
