Ingredients

1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup olive oil
VEGETABLES:
2 large sweet onions
2 medium zucchini
2 yellow summer squash
2 large sweet red peppers, halved and seeded
1 bunch green onions, trimmed
Cooking spray

Directions

In a small bowl, whisk the first five ingredients. Gradually whisk in oils until blended.
Peel and quarter each sweet onion, leaving root ends intact. Cut zucchini and yellow squash lengthwise into 1/2-in.-thick slices. Lightly spritz onions, zucchini, yellow squash and remaining vegetables with cooking spray, turning to coat all sides.
Grill sweet onions, covered, over medium heat 15-20 minutes until tender, turning occasionally. Grill zucchini, squash and peppers, covered, over medium heat 10-15 minutes or until crisp-tender and lightly charred, turning once. Grill green onions, covered, 2-4 minutes or until lightly charred, turning once.
Cut vegetables into bite-size pieces; place in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup vinaigrette and toss to coat. Serve with remaining vinaigrette.

This is a really good and easy recipe - love all the varieties of veggies you can use - and the sauce is outstanding.

I made 1/2 recipe. I substituted a yellow pepper for the squash. Definite keeper.
