01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

8 ounces portobello mushrooms, cleaned and stems cut 1 yellow onion, cut into wedges 1 zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch diagonal slices 1 yellow squash, sliced diagonally into 1/2-inch pieces 1 clove minced garlic ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by heating your grill to medium-high and give the grates a quick brush with some oil so the veggies don’t stick. In a big bowl, toss together the mushrooms, onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and bell peppers. Pour in the teriyaki sauce, minced garlic, and a sprinkle of black pepper, then gently mix everything so the onion stays in nice pieces. Carefully place the veggies on the grill and let them cook, flipping them once halfway through. Keep an eye on them and cook until they start to get tender and nicely charred, usually around 5 to 10 minutes. Once done, take them off the grill and enjoy!
