This is very easy to make. I used a sweet onion in place of a red one. Grilled the veggies on my Cuisinart grill. Using fresh parsley blended into the dressing in the blender emulsified better than by hand. The blend of vegetables, especially the corn made the dish pleasantly sweet but not too sweet.
