  1. Great way to cook veggies on the grill! This is how we'll do it from now on. Used yellow & orange bell peppers, broccoli florets, onion, squash and zucchini. We also put some artichoke hearts on a skewer to quick-grill them and added them to the mix.
     
  2. Loved it! Versatile, attractive, and easy. The only thing I would do differently next time is bake it longer -30 minutes instead of 25. I did have them in foil but switched it to a casserole so the photo would look the way I wanted it to. I have some leftovers so tomorrow for lunch I plan on making a pizza-crust from Recipe#252423, pesto, leftover veggies, and cheese.
     
  3. I tried this recipe both ways. The first time I followed the recipe to the letter, except I used olive oil cooking spray instead of olive oil, just because to reduce the calories. The first time I baked the veggies and they turned out great. The second time, the only other change outside of the cookins spray was that I used dry Italian seasoning because I was out of basil. I grilled the veggies on my George Foreman grill that second time and it turned out delicious! I'll be cooking this again! Both times I used Zucchini, yellow squash and yellow peppers.
     
  4. Really good recipe...I also baked the veggies...turned out wonderful...will definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing.
     
  5. This recipe was very, very good!! We used green beans, broccoli, zucchini, and yellow pepper. As far as herbs, we used 2 cloves of garlic, fresh basil and rosemary. It was just the right amount of herbs to flavor the vegetables. We also made ours with the orange-rosemary chicken by evelyn/athens and it has you use hickory chips on the grill. The hickory was also wonderful in flavoring our vegetables. This will be made often by us this summer (with different vegetables, depending on our mood/what we're having them with). Thanks for posting such a wonderful recipe.

Ah, well... I'm 14, nearly 15. Live in the midwest (USA) Sophmore... Hmm. Just going down the list of suggestions on what to put here. Favorite cook book Joy of Cooking. Pet-peeves? Oh, this is a long list. People who say "same difference", the phrase is same thing, same difference is an oxymoron. Yuppies who think it's cool or amusing or whatever inane quality they see in it who name their golden retrivers unimaginative human names and then tie bandanas around their necks. People who live in the city, generaly single with no kids, and insist on driving SUVs or worse, those godforsaken Hummers. If you don't drive down a dirt road more than twice a year you don't don't one of those monstrositys. Unpaved driveways don't count. People who talk on cell phones in resturaunts, churches, movie theaters, etc. Turn it off before you even go into the building. It ringing is just as annoying as you talking on it especially if it had the ascending ring which makes it go louder. My step mom's belief that the only two seasonings you need is soy sauce and cajun seasoning. Oft times in conjunction with one another. Math beyond what I am ever going to use in the real world. I have yet to find someone who regualrly uses the Pythagorian theorem. Girls who follow the fashions regioulsy, even if that new form fitting tank doesn't quite compliment their beer-gut figure. Anyone who when they see me reading thinks it is a fine time to start questioning /me/ on why we even have books in the first place mearly because they have a fourth grade reading level in high school. Doctors, dentists, nurses et cetera who have a visible tatoo. This may not seem like anything to be concerned about but just wait until some surgeon with "Born to Lose" or "Rest in Pieces" tatooed on his hand starts slicing on you. People who drive unaturaly slow in the passing lane. People who drive right on you butt with their brights on. My adivce, slam on you brakes. That will put those lights out pretty darn quick and there is always the chance you can sue for whiplash. And... I'm starting to ramble. Enough for now.
