Ingredients
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 2 yellow bell peppers
  • 2 red onions
  • 2 globe eggplants
  • 4 small yellow squash
  • 4 small zucchini
  • 2 pounds asparagus
  • 2 pounds cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup basil
  • 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high.
  2. Cut the sides off the peppers - remove the ribs, core, and any seeds.
  3. Peel the outside paper from the onions, cut off the ends, and slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
  4. Remove the ends from the eggplants, then cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
  5. Remove the ends from the squash and zucchini, then cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
  6. Cut about 1/2 inch from the tough ends of the asparagus (or is it asparagi?).
  7. Place all the veggies on a baking sheet, brush all sides lightly with basil oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  8. Grill (see BTW) until marks appear, turning as necessary. Brush with the basil oil again as they come off the grill.
  9. Serve with pretty much anything.
