Grilled-Vegetable Salad With Cilantro Dressing

Submitted by FLUFFSTER

"This is just fabulous for the summer! I recently had some people over, just a casual get-together, half of the people, the other half milling around. I BBQ'd chicken and I served this recipe as a salad before eating. They cleaned out the entire big bowl! It's just a nice, refreshing salad.This recipe was one of those jotted down on a piece of paper that I'd gotten out of a magazine."

Delicious! Raves from everyone at the table and it looks beautiful. I also added some grilled red potatoes and sweet potatoes. (I think next time if I add the potatoes I would increase the amount of dressing as the potatoes absorbed more of it.) Thanks for the recipe!
