Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 1 large red onion
• 250 grams cremini mushrooms
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C).

Step 2

Wash all vegetables thoroughly and pat them dry.

Step 3

Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Cut the bell peppers into strips. Slice the red onion into wedges. Leave the cremini mushrooms whole, or halve if they are large.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.

Step 5

Add all the prepared vegetables into the mixing bowl. Toss until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 6

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the vegetables directly on the grill grates or use a grill basket for ease.

Step 7

Cook the vegetables for 3-5 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until they develop nice char marks and soften slightly. Be mindful of the cooking times, as some vegetables may cook faster than others.

Step 8

Remove the vegetables from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy as a main meal alongside quinoa or rice.
