Grilled Vegetable Platter
·6 Servings Prep: 20 min. + marinating Grill: 10 min.
Ingredients
·1/4 cup olive oil
·2 tablespoons honey
·1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar, divided
·1 teaspoon dried oregano
·1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
·1 pound 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 teaspoon pepper
·Dash salt
Directions
·In a small bowl, combine the oil, honey, 1-tablespoon vinegar, oregano and garlic powder. Pour 3 tablespoons marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the vegetables. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1-1/2 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
·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.
·Transfer to a large serving platter. Combine reserved marinade and remaining vinegar; drizzle over vegetables. Sprinkle with pepper and salt. Yield: 6 servings
These are fantastic! I never knew vegetables could taste so good! You can change the vegetables if you don't like some of them. Some people use green beans instead of the asparagus. These are the best vegetables I've ever had! I marinated them a little longer than the recipe called for,{about 3 or 4 hours} and I only made about half the marinate, but I poured it all into the bag with the veggies. They don't really need any added after they come off the grill, because they are so good! They are very filling, I just put some hot dogs on the side of the grill while I was grilling them to have with them. I had added a few more vegetables than it called for though.
