• In a small bowl, combine lime juice, cumin, chili powder and cilantro; set aside.
• Place vegetables in a grill basket or grill pan, skin side down; off heat, generously coat with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt. Grill vegetables until tender and charred, about 8 to 11 minutes, depending on desired degree of doneness.

• This is great over brown rice with grilled shrimp, fish, chicken or pork.
Variations (could affect POINTS values)
• Use what you have: Use any summer squash, any color pepper, hot or sweet, add baby onions, eggplant slices, tomatillos or green tomatoes. Swap parsley for cilantro, if you like. Or make the sauce Italian style: use lemon, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes and parsley instead of the lime and chili.
