Vegetable KebabsPetrina Tinslay

The beauty of this recipe is that each type of vegetable is cooked on its own skewer for even grilling. The tangy vinaigrette brings out the natural sweetness in the fresh summer vegetables.

Cooks' notes:

· Vegetables can be threaded onto skewers 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
· If you aren't able to grill outdoors, you can broil vegetable skewers in 2 batches on oiled rack of a broiler pan 4 to 6 inches from preheated broiler, turning over once, until golden, about 6 minutes per batch.
