Ingredients
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup coarse-ground mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or rice wine vinegar
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 medium eggplant, cut into ¼-inch-thick strips
  • 2 yellow squash, cut into ¼-inch-thick strips
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 2 red bell peppers, cored, sliced

Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, mustard, and vinegar. Slowly add olive oil, whisking to combine. Add salt and pepper, whisking well.
  2. Divide vegetables between 2 (1-gallon) resealable bags. Pour honey mixture evenly over vegetables. Refrigerate for 4 hours, turning halfway through.
