What outdoor grilling session is complete without some fresh and tasty vegetables? The combination of asparagus, portabello mushrooms and mixed sweet peppers is a winning trio, but feel free to experiment with your own favorite veggies. If you’d like to add fresh herbs, try using oregano, rosemary or thyme, but sprinkle them on after grilling.
