Ingredients

• 1 medium Zucchini
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium Red onion
• 15 pieces Cherry tomatoes
• 10 pieces Baby bella mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, approximately 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cut the zucchini and both bell peppers into 1-inch pieces. Peel the red onion and cut it into wedges, separating each layer slightly.

Step 3

Clean the baby bella mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove any excess dirt. Leave small mushrooms whole and larger ones in half.

Step 4

In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Add the zucchini, bell peppers, onion wedges, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms to the bowl. Toss well to coat the vegetables in the marinade.

Step 6

Thread the vegetables onto metal or pre-soaked bamboo skewers, alternating colors and types for a vibrant presentation.

Step 7

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the vegetables have charred grill marks and are tender but not too soft.

Step 8

Remove from the grill and serve immediately, either as a standalone dish or as a delicious side.
