The healthiest way to eat your veggies. Grilling is always better than frying. Besides if you don't like eating raw veggies as in salad, this is something you might want to try. 


You need
Onions - 1/2 (diced)
Capsicum - 1/2 (diced)
Bread -2 slices
Cucumber - 1/2 (diced)
Tomato - 1 (diced)
Fresh Basil (chopped)
Vinegar -2 teaspoons
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Dijon Mustard - 1 tablespoon
Garlic - 2 cloves
Olives -  a handful (halved)


Method
Garlic bread cubes
  • Toast the bread slices and rub garlic cloves over them, spread some butter on the bread. 
  • Cut these 2 slices of bread into cubes for the salad.
Salad
  • Grill/place in oven the tomatoes, onions and capsicum.
  • In a bowl add the cucumber, grilled veggies and basil
  • Dressing - In a separate bowl add very finely chopped garlic, dijon mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper.
  • Drizzle enough olive oil, mixing all the ingredients to get a dressing sauce.
  • Add the dressing over the veggies and garnish with olives and garlic bread cubes
