Directions
Preheat your grill to medium-high.
Make the dressing: Add all dressing ingredients to a glass jar with a lid. Cover and shake vigorously until the dressing begins to thicken. Set aside until ready to use.
Toss zucchini, bell pepper and onion in a large bowl with olive oil. Arrange vegetables in a grilling basket and place on grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, until the vegetables become slightly browned and tender. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes before handling.
The last 5 minutes of cooking, drizzle corn with a bit of oil and place on the grill. Turn a quarter turn every minute. Once cooked, remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes before handling. Once the corn has cooled, slice off the kernels with a sharp knife and discard the cobs.
To assemble the salad, arrange lettuce and vegetables on a serving dish. Drizzle with dressing. Serve immediately.
