Portabella mushroom

Remove stem from mushroom and discard. Rinse mushroom with cold water. Add your favorite vinaigrette dressing - just enough to fill the bottom of the mushroom cap; marinate for one hour.

Place mushroom on grill, cap side up. Grill until tender.

Skewers
Red peppers - wash and dry, cut into large squares
Zucchini - wash and dry, cut into large round slices, about 3 inches thick
Summer squash - wash and dry, cut into large round slices, about 4 inches thick
Roma tomato - wash and dry, remove core and discard, cut in V wedges

Use bamboo or wood skewers - soak in water for 30 minutes before use so skewers do not burn on the grill or splinter.

Assemble skewers in color array such as - red pepper, zucchini, Roma tomato, squash. When assembling, place vegetable flat on cutting board and insert skewer through skin side and out through skin side for a flat long skewer of fresh vegetables. Grill until vegetables are just tender and slightly crunchy.
