Erin's Roasted Vegetable Salad


Thank you to Erin for sending me this wonderful recipe of hers. This salad is delicious! Have you ever seen a more colorful salad? I omitted red onion and used balsamic vinegar to dress the salad. I accidentally picked up the Feta cheese with Meditteranean herbs and spices but it was great on the salad!

Erin's Roasted Vegetable Salad
1 carton grape tomatos, halved
1 yellow pepper, seeded and cut into thick strips
1 orange pepper, seeded and cut into thick strips
1 zucchini, sliced
1 yellow squash, sliced
1/4 red onion, finely chopped
handful Kalmata Olives, sliced
Feta cheese
Red wine vinegar
Garlic powder or chopped garlic
salt and pepper
olive oil

Move oven rack to its highest setting. Turn oven to Broil on High. Brush Peppers, Zucchini and Squash lightly with olive oil (both sides) and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place veggies on baking sheet and place in oven to broil aprox 10-12 min, until spotty brown. Flip veggies once at about 5 min. Remove veggies from oven and let cool. Place tomatos, onion, olives, cheese into a large bowl. Once roasted veggies have cooled, cut into bite sized pieces. Place cut veggies in bowl with other ingredients. Add garlic powder, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper to taste and toss to incorporate.

I made this for dinner last night - Andy and I both absolutely LOVED it! I substituted broccolini for the zucchini and it added a little different texture which we liked. I'll definitely be making this again. :)
