Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 large green peppers, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 3 medium zucchini, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 24 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 medium eggplant, cut into cubes
  • 24 whole mushrooms

  • 1/4 teaspoon basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano
     
Directions

Directions

  1. If using bamboo skewers, soak skewers (pointed side up) in a glass of water for 2 minutes. (This will keep them from breaking or catching fire when they are over the hot coals.)
  2. Put green pepper, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, eggplant, and mushrooms into bowl. Lightly spray vegetables with nonstick cook spray while mixing with a spoon.
  3. Sprinkle basil and oregano over vegetables. Mix.
  4. Place vegetables onto skewers, alternating vegetables as you go.
  5. Grill over hot coals or broil for 3-5 minutes. Serve. Refrigerate leftovers.
