Grilled Sweet Onion & Tomato Salad, right, What a nice way to trick yourself into eating vegetables.
Grilled Sweet Onion & Tomato Salad
2 Vidalia onions, peeled and cut crosswise 1/2-inch thick
2 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pint grape tomatoes, stems removed, rinsed and halved
12 medium basil leaves, torn or cut in thin match-like strips
2 tsp Wegmans Balsamic Vinegar
8 Metal grilling skewers (if bamboo, soak 1 hour before use)
Clean grill with wire brush; using a soft cloth, coat grill lightly with vegetable oil. Preheat grill on medium heat for 10 min.
Run two parallel skewers, approximately 1-inch apart, through each sliced onion chunk, lollypop-style. Brush with 1 1/2 Tbsp oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Grill onions, turning once, 10-12 minutes, until streaked with grill marks.
Transfer onions to cutting board; cool slightly. Remove skewers, cut onions slices in half and place in serving bowl; toss to separate layers.
Add tomatoes, basil, and remaining oil and vinegar; toss. Serves 4.

Oh yum!
I don’t even LIKE tomatoes (yep–I’m weird) and I’m salivating over that recipe and picture. Now onions, THOSE I can eat all day and all night–and then find myself alone and unloved with dragon breath. Thanks for this post. I’m feeling a steak on the grill in the near future!
yum! i love all of that!
