These grilled veggie skewers are a colorful and healthy addition to any cookout. Packed with fresh vegetables like zucchini, mushrooms, and bell peppers, they are marinated in a savory balsamic-herb mixture and grilled to perfection.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

- Place all the vegetables in a large bowl and pour the marinade over them. Toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Preheat grill to medium heat.
- Thread the marinated vegetables alternately onto the skewers.
- Grill skewers for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until vegetables are tender and lightly charred.
- Serve hot as a main or side dish.
Notes

- For a more intense flavor, marinate the vegetables overnight.
- Use metal skewers to avoid soaking time and for easier handling on the grill.
