Grilled Green and Yellow Squash

Grilling adds a smoky flavor which enhances
the delicate flavor of mild vegetables, like squash. Fresh basil and lemon juice
are all that is needed to finish this dish.

into 1/4" slices
1 medium yellow squash, trimmed and cut
diagonally into 1/4" slices
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons thinly sliced basil leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 packet sugar substitute
