My favorite food is grilled veggies but I don't usually marinate then. I'll just toss them a few minutes before cooing them. I made this Monday night but I used apple cider vinegar in place because I didn't have balsamic and added onion powder. Delish!! :) Always marinating now! haha

I added more veggies than the recipe called for and added zucchini. I also doubled the marinade to ensure adequate coverage. This was delicious. We grilled burgers and had this side dish and that was plenty. I think you could add mushrooms, broccoli, celery and a few other assorted veggies and it'd taste great as well. One of the easiest side dishes to make, short of opening a can of corn - lol. Can't wait to make it again.

The marinade for this recipe is fantastic! I used whatever veggies I had in my garden; summer squash, zucchini, green beans, green pepper and onions. It wasn't as colorful but it sure was delicious (and easy)! I will be making this often over the course of the summer. Thanks for sharing such a great recipe.

This recipe won compliments all around when I made it for the 4th of July. The colors help make it look so appetizing. A few other bits of advice - use MEDIUM heat or the honey in the dressing will burn, and use tongs that are very flexible and able to grasp the small veggies - my BBQ tongs were too stiff and I lost some veggies into the coals. Also, I would prefer a dressing that is a little more tangy and light. Nonetheless, this was a very tasty recipe and its presentation is excellent.

We used a disposable pan and found it difficult to flip the veggies properly. Next time, we're buying an actual roaster and adding a little more salt and pepper as the veggies roast.

Absolutely fantastic. We didn't have a grill grid so we used a disposable grill pan instead. I will double everything next time.

I made these vegetables last night and they were delicious! My husband and I both loved them! I let them marinade a little longer than it said, and didn't put any extra marinade on after they were finished because they tasted so good just the way they were. I will be making this all summer on the grill and during the winter in the oven. What a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables! Can't wait to have company so I can make these for them!

This is exactly how I make summer vegetables. I always make plenty to last for family and guests. I also add mushrooms & green long peppers. I've never added balsamic vinegar. Next time I make this fantastic veggie platter I'll add the balsamic vinegar for a change.

So easy and tasty! Used asparagas, green and red pepper, halved cherry tomatoes, and a zuchini (forgot to add the carrots). Will make again and probably change up the veggies.

This recipe was awesome! Vegetables were flavorful. We didn't have some of the vegetables called for in the recipe, so we used what we had on hand...mushrooms, red onions, orange/yellow peppers, green beans. Fantastic with any combo!

My family loved this recipe. The seasonings enhanced the flavor of the fresh vegetables. I will make this recipe often.

We have some vegetables we don't care for, so I played with the recipe. I substituted green beans for the asparagus and zucchini for the yellow squash. Smelled wonderful while grilling and tasted even better! Two thumbs up!!!!
