Grilled Zucchini Salad with Mediterranean Dressing image

This grilled zucchini salad with Mediterranean salad dressing is the perfect side dish. I also like to add summer squash, when it's in season, for a variation, or crumbled goat cheese when I want creaminess. -Rashanda Cobbins, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
