Marinade:

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons Beaver Brand Deli Mustard

 

Vegetables:

½ cup zucchini, cut into chunks

½ cup summer squash, cut into chunks

½ cup onion, cut into chunks

½ cup bell pepper, cut into chunks

½ cup green beans, trimmed and cut in half

½ cup eggplant, cut into chunks

½ cup carrots, cut into chunks

Directions:

Combine ingredients for marinade in a large bowl.  Add vegetables and toss well to coat.  Make two packets out of foil (or buy premade foil packets) and add half the vegetables to one packet, the other half to the other.  Cook on grill over medium heat until vegetables are crisp-tender.  Remove from foil and serve while hot.
