2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup), divided

Preheat grill to medium (350u00b0F to 400u00b0F). Cut larger squash into 1-inch-thick slices; leave any smaller squash whole. Place squash, mint, salt, 2 tablespoons of the oil, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper in a small bowl; toss to coat. Let stand 20 minutes.

Grill squash until slightly charred and tender, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer squash to a serving platter; drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the vinegar dressing. Sprinkle with parsley and remaining 1/4 cup feta. Serve immediately with remaining dressing.
