Grilled Zucchini Salad

 

Ingredients:

• 4-6 medium zucchini
• 1/4 cup feta cheese
• 2 TB fresh mint leaves, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup pine nuts, lightly toasted (I do this in a small pan, you could also bake them)
• lemon infused olive oil, or regular olive oil and juice from 1/2 lemon
• white balsamic vinegar
• salt and pepper

Directions:
1. Slice zucchini in 1/4 inch slices. Toss with 1-2 TB olive oil (lemon if you have it), salt and pepper.
2. Saute zucchini over medium heat until just tender, approximately 5 minutes.
3. Allow zucchini to cool to room temperature. Toss with approximately 2 TB of white balsamic, and another 1 TB of the lemon olive oil (or regular olive oil, with the juice of 1 lemon).
4. Add pine nuts and feta cheese, toss, and add salt and pepper to taste (should not need much if seasoned before cooking). Finish with fresh mint.

Enjoy!
