Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 2 medium Bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange)
• 1 large Red onion
• 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
• 1 cup Baby carrots
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 large Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 sheets (approx. 12x18 inches each) Aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F).

Step 2

Slice the zucchinis into thin rounds, approximately 1/4-inch thick.

Step 3

Cut the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces, discarding the seeds and stems.

Step 4

Slice the red onion into wedges, keeping them about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and baby carrots.

Step 6

Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil. Add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss to evenly coat the vegetables.

Step 7

Lay out the 4 sheets of aluminum foil on a flat surface.

Step 8

Divide the vegetable mixture evenly among the foil sheets, placing the vegetables in the center of each sheet.

Step 9

Fold each foil sheet into a packet by bringing the long sides together and folding them over tightly, then folding up the short ends to seal. Ensure the packets are securely closed to prevent steam from escaping.

Step 10

Place the packets on the preheated grill. Close the grill lid and cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping the packets halfway through. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the vegetable pieces and your grill.

Step 11

Carefully remove the packets from the grill using tongs. Let them rest for a minute before opening, as steam will be hot.

Step 12

Serve the vegetables directly from the packets or transfer them to a serving dish. Enjoy!
