Lean Mean Grilled Vegetables Recipe
This is a super easy healthy grilled vegetables recipe that goes great with steak, chicken or even salmon. Sometimes I'm just sick of cooking in the kitchen, so I put my husband to work on the grill. It has 8 ingredients, but it's way too easy to pass up.
Serves 6
Ingredients
- 1 lb asparagus, bottoms cut off
- 1 lb small yellow zucchini, quartered lengthwise
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lb fresh cherry tomatoes
- 2 tbsp each of basil, cilantro and oregano

Make it
- Preheat the grill to high.
