In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Grilled Summer Vegetables. I chose to use yellow and zucchini squash, along with some red bell pepper. You may vary the vegetables to your liking, but they should be fairly equally sized and have flavors and textures that blend well.

GETTING READY
1. Wash zucchini, yellow squash and the red bell pepper. Pat them dry with paper towel.
2. Slice the zucchini and yellow squash into circles or diagonal slices, about 1/2 to 5/8 inch wide.
3. Remove the seeds and flesh from the inside of the red bell pepper, and cut into large, equally-sized sections.

MAKING

5. Drizzle olive oil over the top, and mix to coat well. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and set aside until you are ready to put them on the grill.
6. When you are ready to grill the vegetables, place them over medium heat for 7 or 8 minutes, turning once to get grill marks.
