I'm so glad this was posted here. I used to make this all the time, and when I started to get dinner ready tonight, I couldn't find the recipe. I use a lot less than 3T oil, and still have great results. The veggies are also great cold the next day. Thanks!

Absolutly delicious! I did add some balsamic vinegarette right at the end. There was so much flavor with all these great veggies!

These were GREAT! I served them with leftover Thanksgiving dinner and everyone really enjoyed them. I used red, orange, yellow pepper because I had them on hand and also butternut squash. The peppers gave it great color for a nice presentation. I also added a little Mrs. Dash Garlic Herb seasoning. I will definitely be making this again. THANK YOU!!!
