Grilled Marinated Vegetable Salad

Submitted by Babs in Toyland

"A delicious recipe from my neighbor Ceci that can be made in the morning and will be ready to serve with grilled chicken or fish or whatever else you may be grilling for dinner. You can easily grill the vegetables in batches on a counter top grill machine if you have one. A nice substition for the beans is some sliced Portabello mushrooms. Mix and match vegetables as you please. I counted prep time as the time to grill as well, and cook time for the chilling."
