Grilled Chicken Ratatouille

Once you have kids it is likely that you read this title and immediately think of an animated movie. It is one of my go-to recipes when I hit up the farmers market, come home with tons of veggies and have no plan. You can substitute out pretty much any veggie and you’re still getting tons of antioxidants in a yummy way. Prep & chop veggies over the weekend if you have a weeknight rush.

INGREDIENTS:

3 TBSP EVOO
3 TBSP CHOPPED FRESH BASIL
1 TBSP CHOPPED FRESH MARJORAM
1 TSP SALT

1 MED ZUCCHINI, HALVED LENGTHWISE
4 PLUM TOMATOES, HALVED LENGTHWISE
