Instructions
In a small bowl whisk together the 1/2 cup Mazola® Corn Oil, 1 juiced lemon, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon thyme, 1 tablespoon rosemary, 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped basil, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
Place the vegetables in a baking dish and pour the marinade on top. Cover and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
While the vegetables are marinating, place the 6 ounces feta, 4 ounces cream cheese, and 1 tablespoon Mazola Corn Oil in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Place the whipped feta in a bowl and top with honey to taste. Set to the side.
Once the vegetables have marinated, place your cast iron grill pan over high heat.
Once the grill is hot turn the heat down to medium and place the vegetables on the grill in a single layer. Cook for 3-5 minutes rotating the veggies halfway through.
The veggies are done once they have charred grill marks on all sides. Repeat the grilling process until all of the veggies are grilled.*(1)
