GRILLED VEGETABLE STACKS

-

Balsamic Marinade

⅓ cup balsamic vinegar ⅓ cup olive oil 1 small clove garlic, minced 1 tsp Dijon mustard 1 tsp kosher salt ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

Vegetables

4 each large red and yellow bell peppers, quartered lengthwise and seeded 2 large zucchini, cut into ⅓-inch diagonal slices (12 slices)

6 medium portobello mushrooms (approx. 3 inches in diameter), peeled, gills gently scooped out with small spoon

6 4-inch rosemary sprigs, leaves removed from lower half

Balsamic Marinade

In a large bowl, whisk vinegar, oil, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper. Add red peppers, yellow peppers and zucchini slices, tossing well to coat. Marinate at room temperatur­e for 15 minutes. Add mushrooms, tossing gently and marinate for another 15 minutes.

Lightly coat grill with non-stick cooking spray and heat to mediumhigh heat. Remove vegetables from marinade, reserving marinade.

Working in batches, grill vegetables until tender and lightly charred, about 8 to 10 minutes for peppers and 7 minutes for mushrooms and zucchini. Brush with marinade once or twice during cooking.

Remove from grill. When you are almost ready to serve, place mushrooms upside down on a flat surface. Layer with a piece of red pepper, zucchini, yellow pepper and another slice of zucchini. Poke the rosemary sprig through the middle of each stack with the leaves at the top.
