Ingredients
Scale
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 zucchini, sliced into rounds
- 1 yellow squash, sliced into rounds
- 1 red onion, quartered
- Cherry tomatoes (optional for added color)
- Wooden or metal skewers
- Marinade: 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 tsp dried oregano, salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by washing all your vegetables thoroughly. Cut the bell peppers into large chunks, slice the zucchini and yellow squash into manageable rounds, and quarter the red onion. Include cherry tomatoes for added color and flavor.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss the vegetables in this marinade, ensuring every piece is well coated. Let sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Thread the marinated vegetables onto skewers, alternating colors and textures for visual appeal. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill, turning occasionally, until vegetables are tender and slightly charred — about 10-12 minutes.
- Serve hot off the grill, garnished with fresh herbs like basil or parsley. Pair with a light salad or refreshing drink for a complete Riverdale-inspired meal.
Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality vegetables for best flavor and grilling results.
- Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
- Vegetables can be marinated ahead of time and assembled just before grilling for convenience.
