I grill peppers and onions as well as asparagus separately on my GF but never thought to combine them. My vinagrette was homemade, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasonings blend and a smidge of Dijon to bind it. The results were delicious hot and as a room temperature salad for lunch. Thanks Paula!

We really enjoyed this! So simple and the grilling added a little something special to the veggies! Yum! I only had a green bell pepper so I added some halved grape tomatoes after the grilling and they added great color and flavor too! Thanks so much! We'll be making this quick and easy side dish often!

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
