Grilled Vegetable Salad to Use Up the Last of the Summer Produce
Disclaimer for all you Americans out there: autumn is the word we Europeans use to refer to fall in British English. It actually pains me to be already talking about autumn, but we have to face the harsh reality that, at least in Amsterdam, we won't be seeing much of the sun for a pretty long time. So to help us hold on to the warm weather a little longer, we felt that eating our feelings away with a late-summer salad was the perfect solution.
To help us out, we got inspiration from another recipe, and decided to add our own twist to it. Adding a grilled peach was definitely one of the best additions to the salad. From it came an incredible caramelized taste, and from the honey dressing came the perfect amount of sweetness. Somehow, the grilled corn left us with the aftertaste of popcorn.
Needless to say, it didn't take much time for us both to finish up all of the salad, which was probably enough to have fed four to five people. If you're looking to cozy up with a summer-like dish, then this salad should be at your next meal.
