Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook pasta according to the package. Once pasta is done cooking, drain well and place in a large glass bowl.
2 1/2 cups dried rotini pasta
In a measuring cup, whisk together lemon and olive oil. Set aside.
Juice of 2 lemons,
1/2 cup of olive oil
Turn on grill to high and brush asparagus and zucchinis with vegetable oil. Sprinkle salt and pepper on the vegetables then place on the grill.
1 bunch of asparagus,
2 medium zucchinis,
Vegetable oil for brushing,
Salt and pepper
Grill until vegetables are tender and have grill marks. They shouldn't take very long, 7 minutes at the most.
Once veggies are done, let cool enough to touch then cut asparagus into 1-inch long pieces and slice zucchinis into half-moons.
Add veggies to the glass bowl, pour olive oil mixture on top and toss well to coat. Add more salt and pepper, if desired.
