I found this recipe last summer on Taste of Home and we really love it! You can put any vegetables you like, you don't have to stick to these. We really love it on the grill because you get all of those wonderful grilled flavors, but have also made it in the oven when it wasn't possible to use the grill. Yummy! You can just...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 c olive oil, extra virgin
2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder {optional}
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed
3 small carrots, cut in half lengthwise
1 large sweet red pepper, cut into 1-inch strips
1 medium yellow summer squash, cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 medium red onion, cut into four wedges
1/8 tsp pepper
dash(es) salt

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, combine the oil, honey, 1 tablespoon vinegar, oregano and garlic powder. Pour marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the vegetables. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1-1/2 hours. {I usually make it in the morning and just marinade all day.}
  • 2. Place vegetables on a grilling grid. Transfer to grill rack. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 4-6 minutes on each side or until crisp-tender.
  • 3. Transfer to a large serving platter. Sprinkle with pepper and salt.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, seasonal vegetables. This will ensure that they grill evenly and maintain their shape.
  • Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Toss the vegetables with olive oil. This will help them brown and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
  • Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Grill the vegetables over medium heat. This will help them cook through without burning.
  • Flip the vegetables occasionally. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Remove the vegetables from the grill when they are tender. You can test this by piercing them with a fork.
  • Serve the grilled vegetables immediately. They can be served as a side dish or as a main course.

Conclusion:

Grilling vegetables is a healthy and delicious way to enjoy them. With a little planning and effort, you can create a grilled vegetable platter that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful meal, give grilled vegetables a try!
