GRILLED VEGETABLE SALAD WITH FETA AND MINT

Steps:

• Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on a tray or work surface. Lightly spray both sides with olive oil cooking spray. Preheat a grill or grill pan over a medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables in batches until both sides are nicely charred and the vegetables are just tender, about 10 minutes for the pepper, about 8 minutes for the eggplant and onion, and about 6 minutes for the zucchini. When the vegetables are cool enough to handle, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and transfer to a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar and oregano. Pour over the vegetables and toss. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Gently stir in the tomatoes and mint. Divide the salad between 4 plates and sprinkle with the feta.

CRUNCHY FETA & MINT SALAD

Steps:

• Using a coarse grater or food processor, grate the carrots and beetroot. In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil and garlic. Season to taste, then toss the carrot and beetroot through the dressing along with the leaves from the chicory (or a crunchy lettuce). Crumble the feta cheese, roughly tear the mint leaves and toss them through the salad. Add crunch with a handful of toasted almonds or walnuts, if you like.
