GRILLED ZUCCHINI SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND BASIL
Grilled zucchini can also be marinated in a vinaigrette made with red wine vinegar. Feel free to use any fresh herb on hand in the dressing. Grilled zucchini can be served right from the grill as a simple side dish with grilled meats, poultry or fish also.

Steps:
- Heat grill. Lay zucchini on large baking sheet and brush both sides with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
- When grill is hot, use stiff wire brush to scrape surface clean. Grill zucchini until dark grill marks are visible on one side, 2-3 minutes. Turn and continue to grill until the other side is marked, about 2 minutes. Remove from grill and cool briefly.
- Whisk remaining 2 tablespoons oil with balsamic vinegar, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper. Toss tomatoes and basil with dressing in large bowl.
- Cut grilled zucchini into 1-inch pieces. Toss with tomatoes and dressing. Adjust seasoning and serve. (Can be covered and set aside at room temperature for up to 3 hours at this point.).
