Grilled Vegetables

Sweet Potato Fries

Basil Aioli

Method

Grilled Vegetables

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash all the vegetables thoroughly. Slice the portobello mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash, sweet peppers, and red onion into even-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, combine the sliced vegetables with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar. Toss well to coat and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Vegetables

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated vegetables on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are tender and have grill marks.

  4. 4

    Serve the Vegetables

    Remove the grilled vegetables from the grill and set aside. Serve over a bed of baby greens.

Sweet Potato Fries

  1. 5

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into thin strips.

  2. 6

    Season the Fries

    In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato strips with olive oil, salt, paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.

  3. 7

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the sweet potato fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.

Basil Aioli

  1. 8

    Make the Aioli

    In a food processor, combine mayonnaise, fresh basil leaves, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. 9

    Serve the Aioli

    Transfer the basil aioli to a serving bowl and serve alongside the grilled vegetables and sweet potato fries.
