Here is a delicious low-fat dish that is great for summer time cook outs and get togethers. I have listed some veggies that you can use, however feel free to add or subtract what ever you like. I usually use what ever I have on hand. The pictured dish has all ingredients listed below and yes we had it as a side dish last night! I was also able to pick a few fresh basil leaves from the garden and throw them in (pictured below). Yummy!
