Expert Tips

If you don’t have a grill basket, use a sheet of heavy-duty foil and poke a few holes in the foil with a fork.

When grilling a variety of vegetables at once, be prepared to take each off the grill at a different time. For maximum flavor, season the vegetables with salt and pepper both before and after grilling.

Olive oil can be substituted for the butter. Or omit the butter and spray the vegetables with cooking spray, then sprinkle with the seasonings.

Pine nuts can be substituted for the walnuts.

This is very good with a simple grilled meat.I would omit the nuts and add a can of drained water chestnuts for crunch.

I made this with my boyfriend - his fave veg is green beans so I always try to find recipes for them to make him eat his veggies! But this time, we thought the beans were the weak link. The mushrooms and asparagus were absolutely delicious. We also omitted the nuts, neither of us care for that on veggies. Next time we would increase the asparagus and mushrooms and omit the green beans, but overall it was very very good.
