I love making these grilled veggies for a side dish. The vegetables are so easy to make and complete just about any entree you will be serving them with! The smokiness from the grill adds so much flavor to the vegetables, nothing beats grilling veggies. I love that they are still crispy but so flavorful from the marinade.
