This summer vegetables dish is extra special because the vegetables are marinated in a red wine, orange, garlic and herb marinade, for a rich flavor. You will need to plan this grilled marinated vegetables recipe beforehand since the vegetables have to soak in the marinade for several hours.
You can vary the quantities of ingredients in this recipe and perhaps use some large mushrooms too. Because red wine is used in the marinade and the resulting vegetable recipe is rich and flavorful, this summer vegetables recipe is ideal served as a side dish with grilled steak or a similar red meat or it is tasty enough to be served by itself as a complete vegetarian meal.

"Vegetable is a culinary term. Its definition has no scientific value and is somewhat arbitrary and subjective. All parts of herbaceous plants eaten as food by humans, whole or in part, are generally considered vegetables. Mushrooms, though belonging to the biological kingdom, fungi, are also commonly considered vegetables."
"Since ‘vegetable’ is not a botanical term, there is no contradiction in referring to a plant part as a fruit while also being considered a vegetable. Given this general rule of thumb, vegetables can include leaves (lettuce), stems (asparagus), roots (carrots), flowers (broccoli), bulbs (garlic), seeds (peas and beans) and of course the botanical fruits like cucumbers, squash, pumpkins, and capsicums."
