Grilled Squash and Artichoke Salad image

We LOVE grilled summer squash so I always make a jumbo batch and have leftovers. Sometimes we reheat it for lunch. Sometimes I combine it with other summer goodies and a couple pantry staples for this salad. If you aren't in the habit of grilling squash try this recipe Recipe #222171 to get the raw materials. "Cooking" time is chilling time.
