Capture all the delicious and nutrient-packed flavor of nature's bounty on the grill. We give this classic summer dish an even fresher taste by adding snipped chives. The simple three-ingredient seasoning brings out the smoky, sweet flavor of the vegetables. When cutting your vegetables, you'll want to cut each type of vegetable in the same thickness so that they will cook more evenly. The vegetables can be refrigerated and stored for up to four days. You can serve them alongside grilled meats for a complete meal, serve as an appetizer with a vegetable dip or use in a sandwich the next day.
