Marinated Grilled Veggies

If you have been searching for an easy summer side dish, search no more!  Marinating vegetables and throwing them on the grill is super simple, and a real crowd pleaser.

When I made this particular batch of marinated grilled veggies, I used my favorite store-bought salad dressing- Gazebo Room Lite.  I always have a bottle of Gazebo Room in the fridge and use it all the time.

This side dish is so easy, it doesn't even require a recipe.  Simply chop your veggies into bite-size pieces, throw them in a plastic storage bag, then pour in dressing until the veggies are well coated.  I do this part in the morning, or even the night before, to make sure the veggies have enough time to soak.  

I used 2 small zucchini, 1 small onion, and one 8 oz carton of slice mushrooms for 4 side dish servings.  This dish would also be good with bell pepper, yellow squash, or eggplant, there are so many delicious combinations.

I know I say this a million times, but getting a grill skillet was a real game changer for Matt & I.  It is so easy to just grill the vegetables in the skillet instead of messing around with foil or skewers.  

Now comes the fun part- hang out on your deck or patio and grill your veggies.  Maybe have a beer or glass of wine?  The veggies can take anywhere from 15-30 minutes depending on how you like them.  I like mine pretty well done- soft with a little char.  Mmm!!

I had my veggies with a serving of quinoa, and tofu dipped in BBQ sauce.  And if this is looking awesome to you but you aren't sure how to make tofu- check out my tofu tutorial.  Happy Meatless Monday!
