Grilled Vegetables and Halloumi Cheese Salad

I don’t know if you have ever tasted it, but grilled halloumi is absolutely delicious. The flavor remains fresh and delicate with crispy edge. Even alone it’s great! When added to another dish, like in this recipe, the dish is completely changed—and it only takes a few minutes!

Halloumi is an off-white cheese, generally in a rectangular shape and is characterized by a fold in the center. Originally from Cyprus, halloumi has a firm texture, even in cooking—the opposite of mozzarella—and made from sheep’s milk or cow’s milk. It is very unique.
