    Perfect "not your everyday" summer dish to go with grilled chicken or fish. Easy and delicious enough to become favorite go-to side dish!

    This was delicious; however I added a few things to use up the farmer's basket I still had on my counter, including a grilled red pepper (grilled whole, then skinned and seeded and a small diced yellow tomato and a green/yellow striped tomato. I also substituted basil and parsley because I did not have oregano. I also did not have lemon zest. To avoid the messy look many have mentioned, mix everything except for the avocado. Then throw the diced avocado (slightly under-ripe won't be as mushy, although neither will it be as tasty into some lemon or lime juice to keep it fresh before tossing it LIGHTLY into the salad. I served this over extra plain grilled crostini (from the grilled plum crostini also on this episode to soak up all the delicious flavor. A winner...we did not have it as a side, but as the entree. Good way to get some veggies into your meal, or use up summer veggies you have sitting around.

    DELICIOUS and SO EASY! I didn't have fresh oregano so I substituted dried (just a pinch and added julienne fresh basil. This is a fantastic combination of flavors and textures. I will most definitely make this again. Bobby Flay is the man!!

    This salad is easily a beautiful presentation with the vibrant colors. It is simple to make but a sophisticated treat - the combination of avocado, grilled eggplant, and grilled red onion with a light honey mustard vinagrette is a delicious!

    I really enjoyed this recipe, though I agree that its appearance could be off-putting to some. I tweeked the second batch I made, adding a roasted yellow pepper, subbing dill for oregano and adding that splash of lemon Phil from NY suggested below. Also, I took the eggplant off the grill a little sooner, so it wasn't so mushy and made for better presentation.

    I admit I had my doubts, especially the dressing (seemed bland but when I put it all together it was absolutely delicious. Each flavor complemented the other, the smoothness of the avocado was offset wonderfully by the crunch of the onion. The eggplant added a wonderful smokey flavor. A definite keeper.
