recipe :: a summer favorite
April 27, 2012
Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite summer veggies dishes. {yes, I know it’s spring but with temps in the high 80’s it feels like summer already!} This dish is a little time consuming but it’s super easy and oh-my-gosh you will not regret the final product.
BALSAMIC PORTABELLA WITH GRILLED VEGGIE COUS COUS
:: what you need ::
2 zucchini
2 yellow squash
1 red onion
4 portabella mushroom
1 cup cous cous
:: the marinade ::
Balsamic Vinegar – 1/2 cups
Olive Oil- 2/3 cup
Pinch of Brown Sugar or 1 TBSP of Maple Syrup
Fresh Rosemary
Salt/Pepper
:: make it::
Cut the squash and zucchini length wise about 1/2 apart
Cut the onion, cut about 8 slices/wedges and keep on the root-en
Leave the portabella whole or cut in half
Put all the veggies in a bag and marinade for 1-2 hours
{Make sure to save the remainder of the marinade once the veggies are finished!}
Once they have marinated, grill the veggies for about 10 mins (turning once).
Start the cous cous at the same time you put veggies on the grill as they take about the same amount of time.
After veggies are grilled, chop up the onion, squash and zucchini and add them to the cooked cous cous. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of the left over marinade and mixed it all up.
Lastly, I cut the portabella into thick slices and put them on top of the grilled veggie cous cous!
