Ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil; 1 teaspoon salt; 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes; 1 teaspoon dried basil; 3 large ears fresh corn on the cob, cut into 3-inch pieces; 2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch slices; 1 medium yellow summer squash, cut into 1/4-inch slices; 1 medium sweet onion, sliced; 1 large green pepper, diced; 10 cherry tomatoes; 1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) whole mushrooms, drained; 1/4 cup butter

This side dish is our favorite way to fix summer vegetables. Cleanup is a breeze because it cooks in foil. It goes from garden to table in under an hour, and makes a great accompaniment to grilled steak or chicken. — Lori Daniels, Beverly, West Virginia

Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried basil
3 large ears fresh corn on the cob, cut into 3-inch pieces
2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 medium yellow summer squash, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 medium sweet onion, sliced
1 large green pepper, diced
10 cherry tomatoes
1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) whole mushrooms, drained
1/4 cup butter

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the oil, salt, parsley and basil. Add vegetables and toss to coat. Place on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 28 in. x 18 in.). Dot with butter. Fold foil around vegetables and seal tightly.
Grill, covered, over medium heat for 20-25 minutes or until corn is tender, turning once. Open carefully to allow steam to escape.

Served this tonight with the quick marinated grilled chicken from this website. This was excellent. We used mushrooms, peppers, and onions, but we will make this again when we have tomatoes, zucchini, squash, and sweet corn from our garden. No leftovers. My husband said, "Next time we will have to make more vegetables." How often do you hear that?

This is a delicious & easy way to fix vegetables on the grill. My son doesn't care for mushrooms, so I left those out of the recipe and added a sweet red pepper instead. Thanks for the great recipe!
