Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Vegetables
  • 2 medium Zucchini adds a mild flavor and soft texture when grilled
  • 2 medium Bell peppers bring sweetness and vibrant colors
  • 1 medium Red onion provides a slight sharpness
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes burst with juiciness
Marinade
  • 4 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil (evoo) enhances flavor and prevents sticking to the grill
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced for flavor
  • 2 teaspoons Dried herbs (oregano or basil) for a fresh, earthy dimension

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, whisk together evoo, minced garlic, and herbs to create the marinade.
  2. Slice the zucchini, bell peppers, and onion; leave cherry tomatoes whole.
  3. Combine the veggies in a zip-top bag with the marinade and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high (about 375°F or 190°C).
  2. Place the marinated veggies on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through until tender and charred.
Serving
  1. Transfer the grilled veggies to a platter and enjoy warm.

Notes

For maximum flavor, marinate the vegetables for 1-2 hours if time allows. Feel free to substitute your favorite veggies or add lemon juice before serving for freshness.
