Ingredients
Vinaigrette
- 2 shallot roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon dill fresh
- 1 tablespoon parsley fresh
- 8 mint leaf fresh
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard spicy
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 cup distilled vinegar
- ½ cup olive oil
Salad:
- 1 yellow onion sliced into ¼-inch rounds
- olive oil
- kosher salt
- black pepper ground
- 2 zucchini cut on the diagonal, green
- 2 yellow squash cut on the diagonal
- 2 dill chopped, sprigs, fresh
- 10 mint leaf roughly chopped, fresh
- 2/3 cup feta cheese crumbled
- 1/3 cup white vinaigrette
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 3 thyme sprigs, fresh
- 1 avocado sliced
- kosher salt
- black pepper ground
Instructions
- White Vinaigrette:
- In a blender, combine all the ingredients until finely chopped, not puréed. Season with salt and pepper.
- Any remaining vinaigrette can be saved in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days and should be brought up to room temperature before using.
- Grilled Summer Squash, Avocado, and Feta Salad:
- Preheat a grill or ridged griddle pan, until very hot. Drizzle the onion rings with a little olive oil and season with kosher salt and pepper. In a bowl, toss the zucchini and squash with olive oil, salt and pepper. Grill all the vegetables until the onions are softened and zucchini and squash are nicely char-marked.
- In a large bowl, combine all the grilled vegetables (pull the onions apart into rings), dill, mint, oregano, and thyme.
- Toss with 1/3 cup of the vinaigrette to coat and adding more vinaigrette, if desired. Season with sea salt and toss again.
- Scatter avocado slices and feta over the top.
Notes
- This salad tastes great warm or at room temperature.
- It also makes for an ideal side dish for steak or grilled fish.
