Grilled Sweet Potatoes, Squash, Peppers and Onions with Feta

This is so good and I am proud to say I designed the recipe myself. I like it as a side dish with grilled chicken or on brown rice though it's also good cold on greens.

Grilled Sweet Potatoes, Squash, Peppers and Onions with Feta

1 Sweet Potato
1/2 Butternut Squash
2 Red Peppers
1/2 Bermuda Onion
Olive Oil
Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 cup Feta Cheese

Chop the sweet potato and squash in 3/4 inch cubes. Cut the pepper and onion in 1 inch pieces. Toss the roots in 1-2 tbsp olive oil and place in a bowl. Toss the pepper and onion with mixture of about 2 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar and marinade about an hour. Warm your grill (or I imagine you could roast in the broiler or oven...) and roast the roots till soft (about 10-15 minutes) and remove from grill. Grill the peppers and onions (about 5 minutes). Both will have slightly blackened edges and taste so sweeeeeeet!

Blend the grilled items in a serving bowl and sprinkle with feta.

Good luck with you new blog. It can be a lot of fun. My own has encouraged my new found interest in wildflowers and birding.
