Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 zucchini, sliced into rounds
  • 1 yellow squash, sliced into rounds
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl or zip-top bag, combine balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add all the vegetables and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours) in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
  4. Place the marinated vegetables on the grill in a single layer. Grill for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred.
  5. Remove from grill and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with fresh basil if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use a grill basket to keep smaller veggies like cherry tomatoes from falling through the grates.
  • Can also be roasted in the oven at 425°F if a grill is not available.
  • Great as a side, in sandwiches, or tossed with pasta or quinoa.
