Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, very finely chopped
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 medium yellow squash, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 medium zucchini, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 medium red bell pepper, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1 cup diced yellow onions
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (2 oz)
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley leaves

Steps

1

Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 4 (18x12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. Spray with cooking spray.
2

In large bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and red pepper flakes. Add squash, zucchini, bell pepper, tomatoes and onions; toss to combine. Divide evenly among sheets of foil.
3

Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
4

Place packs on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 6 minutes. Rotate packs 1/2 turn; cook 5 to 7 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender. Remove packs from grill; cut large X across top of each pack. Carefully fold back foil, and garnish with feta cheese and parsley.
5

To make in oven, place packs on cookie sheet. Bake at 375°F 18 to 22 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Carefully fold back foil, and garnish with feta cheese and parsley.

Expert Tips

Tip 1
Vegetables can be cut and tossed in oil mixture, then covered and refrigerated up to 2 hours before placing in foil packs and grilling.
Tip 2
Can’t take the heat? Substitute ground black pepper for the red pepper flakes.
