Ingredients

  • 1 small zucchini or yellow summer squash , cut into 1-inch slices
  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 medium onion, cut into eighths
  • 1 package (8 ounces) fresh mushroom

    Brush grill rack lightly with vegetable oil, or spray with cooking spray. Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Place vegetables on grill, using slotted spoon. Grill uncovered 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 4 to 5 minutes, turning once and brushing with remaining dressing in bowl, until crisp-tender. Refrigerate vegetables uncovered in single layer while making pasta.

    Using same bowl with any remaining dressing, stir together Seasoning mix and cold water; set aside. Drain pasta; rinse with cool water. Shake to drain well. Cut grilled vegetables in half if desired; stir vegetables and pasta into seasoning mixture. Serve immediately, or refrigerate.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    You can serve this salad alongside grilled meats, but it’s equally delicious as a meatless main dish.
  • tip 2
    Brush the grill rack with vegetable oil or spray with cooking spray before heating grill. This will reduce the chance for injury from fire.
