Home Back to Recipes Recipe in Word format

Ingredients:

1 green, 1 red, and 1 yellow bell pepper
1 large vidalia onion
1 small eggplant
1 small summer squash
1 small zucchini
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
minced garlic (jar is fine)--about two Tbsp.
olive oil
sea salt and fresh ground pepper
fresh shredded (not grated) parmesan, asiago, or romano cheese

Directions:

Preparation
1) cut squash and egglant into 1/4 inch rounds
2) cut peppers and onions into long strips or rings
3) rinse tomatoes and set aside
4) Just before grilling, toss vegetables with olive oil, sea salt, pepper in large bowl.

	Pre-heat grill.
	In a large "grill pan" (vented metal container that can sit directly on grill) place onions and peppers.
	Toss with spatula to keep from burning. Place rounds of eggplant and squash directly onto grill, turning frequently.
	Grill all until slightly browned or blackened, to your preference. Arrange on platter and sprinkle with cheese.

P.S. after all other veggies are grilled, remove onions and peppers and toss tomatoes into grill pan and gently grill them for a few minutes. They burn fast so be careful!
