Ingredients

• 3 medium Zucchini
• 2 medium Red bell pepper
• 3 medium Yellow squash
• 1 large Red onion
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly.

Step 2

Trim the ends off the zucchini and yellow squash. Slice them lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.

Step 3

Halve the red bell peppers, remove the seeds and stems, and cut into thick strips.

Step 4

Peel and slice the red onion into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, keeping the layers intact for grilling.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk to create a marinade.

Step 6

Add the prepared zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and red onion to the bowl. Toss until all vegetables are evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 7

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Place the vegetables on the grill in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until grill marks appear and the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Drizzle the grilled vegetables with fresh lemon juice, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve warm or at room temperature.
