CPK'S GRILLED VEGETABLE SALAD - MY VERSION

Steps:

• Grill asparagus, eggplant, zucchini, corn, and meat as desired.
• Suggestion: I put the olive oil in a 9x12 pyrex dish and added the vegs (but for the sake of presentation don't mix together), roasting them under the broiler.
• Put a bed of lettuce on plate,
• On top of that,mound each grilled veg separately around the edges.
• Top with sliced meat, if using.
• add chopped green onion and avo.
• Dress with dijon balsamic dressing (I used a recipe from this site).
• It makes a beautiful presentation when vegs are separate on the plate, then tossed to eat.
