TIPS
*The vegetables can be roasted in the oven instead of on the BBQ. Simply line a baking sheet with aluminium foil and bake in the oven (preheated to 450 F) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until dark golden.
**The bread can be toasted in the oven instead of on the BBQ. Simply place the bread on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Broil in the oven for 1 to 2 minutes or until toasted. Keep a close watch because toast burns quickly!
