Get Your Grub On
MARINATED GRILLED VEGETABLES
INGREDIENTS: (all organic if possible)
1 medium zucchini - sliced into bite sized pieces
1 red onion - sliced into rings
1 bell pepper - top and seeds removed and sliced into strips
1 cup mushrooms - halved
1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes
1/2 eggplant - sliced into bite sized pieces
For the marinade:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried basil
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
DIRECTIONS:
Chop up all of the vegetables and place them in a large zip-lock bag.
Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Pour over the vegetables. Place in fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Heat up your grill to a high direct heat.
Place vegetables on a grilling pan. If you don't have a grilling pan you can use a baking pan or sheet. A pan helps to prevent the veggies from falling through the grill.
Place pan over high direct heat to cook, about 5-6 minutes per side.You want the veggies to get a nice char from the grill, but pull them off before they get too soft.
