Instructions:
- Heat the grill to medium-high heat, and brush with oil. Grill the salad ingredients for 2–3 minutes, just until grill marks form and they are slightly charred. Chop into bite-sized pieces, and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
- For the salad dressing: Place the buttermilk, chives, parsley, cilantro, lemon juice, and garlic in a blender. Puree until smooth. Add the mayonnaise to a medium bowl, and whisk in the buttermilk mixture. Season with salt and pepper, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- In a large serving bowl, toss the grilled greens together with the toppings. Drizzle with the salad dressing, and serve with lemon wedges.
