Steps:
- Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush the vegetables with 1/4 cup of the oil to coat lightly. Sprinkle the vegetables with salt and pepper. Working in batches, grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred all over, about 8 to 10 minutes for the bell peppers; 7 minutes for the yellow squash, zucchini, eggplant, and mushrooms; 4 minutes for the asparagus and green onions. Arrange the vegetables on a platter. The key to getting those great grill marks is to not shift the vegetables too frequently once they've been placed on the hot grill.
- Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, parsley, basil, and rosemary in a small bowl to blend. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the herb mixture over the vegetables. Serve the vegetables, warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Place ingredients in a jar and shake well. Set aside 10 minutes+.
- Keep pieces large for easy handling on the BBQ (so you don't have to turn hundreds of pieces!) and so they don't fall through the grills.
- Capsicum/bell peppers - cut the "walls" off, then cut each each on the diagonal into fairly large pieces.
- Onion (Note 4) - keep the root end (hairy end!) in tact. Peel, cut in half, then cut into wedges through the root end.
- Brush BBQ grills lightly with oil, then preheat to high. Or oven 250°C/480°F.
- Place vegetables in a very large bowl or use a big tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic. Toss with hands (there is no better way!).
- Place on BBQ and cook until tender crisp with charred edges - cook times below. Then remove into large bowl.
- Asparagus, zucchini - grill 2 min each side. (Oven - 10 min, no flipping)
- Capsicum, mushroom, onion - grill 3 min each side (oven 15 min, flip at 10 min)
- Eggplant - grill 4 min each side. Jab in middle to ensure soft but not soggy! (oven 18 min)
- While vegetables are still hot, drizzle over Dressing and toss.
- Set aside 10 minutes+ before serving, sprinkled with parsley. See in post for serving ideas.

Working with the bottom slice of the baguette, stack 2 slices of eggplant, 2 slices zucchini, 1 slice onion, 1 slice tomato, 1 slice mozzarella, and 1 slice of roasted pepper. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place top half of baguette on top and continue with remaining baguette. (The sandwiches can be made 4 hours ahead. Wrap well with plastic wrap and refrigerate.)

- 2 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/3 cup (about) extra-virgin olive oil

With the blender still running, gradually add enough oil to form a smooth and thick consistency. Transfer the pesto to a medium bowl and stir in 1/2 cup of cheese. Season the pesto with more salt and pepper, to taste. (The pesto can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
