• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder.
3. Add the red bell pepper, yellow squash, green zucchini, purple onion, and cherry tomatoes to the bowl. Toss to evenly coat the vegetables in the seasoned olive oil.
4. Thread the vegetables onto skewers, alternating to create a colorful arrangement.

Helpful Tips

• Beginner Tip: If you’re new to grilling, soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before threading the vegetables to prevent them from burning.
• Variation: Add mushrooms, baby corn, or different colored bell peppers for even more color and flavor.
• Storage: Leftover skewers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Substitutions: Use any of your favorite seasonal veggies for this recipe. Feel free to experiment!
