Ingredients

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
¼ teaspoon salt
3 medium zucchini and/or yellow summer squash, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1 large red onion, cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup red and/or yellow grape tomatoes

Directions

For marinade: In a 3-quart rectangular baking dish, whisk together vinegar, olive oil, garlic, oregano, and salt. Add zucchini and onion, stirring to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, lightly coat a grill pan or grill wok with cooking spray. For a charcoal grill, preheat grill pan on an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 15 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, remove zucchini and onion from marinade and place in the grill pan. Reserve marinade. Grill vegetables for 5 to 6 minutes or just until tender and lightly brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in the tomatoes. Grill about 1 minute more or until tomatoes are heated through. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Preheat grill pan as directed. Add vegetables as directed. Cover and grill as above.) Remove vegetables from the grill pan. Place on a serving platter. Drizzle reserved marinade over vegetables. Toss to combine.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
