Grilled Vegetables

About this recipe

Summertime means barbecue and what's better than vegetables on the grill. Buy a fancy grilling pan from a specialty store and get down to it. P.S. No broccoli.

Instructions

Wash, cut up, and place in a large bowl:

  • 3 bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange),
  • 3 small zucchini (cut ½" thick),
  • ½ lb. fresh mushrooms,
  • 1 purple onion (also called red or Italian),
  • 1 lb. asparagus (ends snapped off).

Toss together with:

  • a little olive oil (to lightly coat),
  • a little salt and black pepper.

Pour vegetables into your fancy grilling pan and barbecue on medium-high for 15-20 minutes, stirring from time to time. With a few minutes to go, add:

  • a handfull of cherry or grape tomatoes, previously tossed with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

When veggies look cooked (soft and lightly charred), return to bowl and toss with:

  • more olive oil,
  • a splash of balsamic vinegar,
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic (minced),
  • ½ tsp. salt and ¼ tsp. black pepper (or to taste).

Notes

  • You could also add a little mint.
  •  
    Try this recipe with just baby potatoes, olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, and a bit of oregano.
