Ingredients
  

1 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 yellow bell pepper, diced

1 small red onion, cut into wedges

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup mushrooms, quartered

3 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Veggies: In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, and garlic.

    Season the Mix: Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the veggies. Add the dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything thoroughly to ensure even coating.

      Create the Packets: Cut four large squares of aluminum foil (about 12x12 inches). Divide the veggie mixture among the squares, placing it in the center of each.

        Seal the Packets: Fold the sides of the foil over the veggies and crimp the edges to ensure that the packets are sealed securely, leaving some space for steam to circulate.

          Grill the Packets: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the veggie packets on the grill and close the lid. Grill for 15-20 minutes, turning the packets halfway through, until the vegetables are tender.

            Serve and Garnish: Carefully remove the packets from the grill (they will be hot). Open them with caution, allowing the steam to escape. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
