- 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1 small red onion, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
- 3/4 cup low-fat Italian dressing
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoon honey
What to Do

Notes
Salad dressing is an easy instant marinade for our veggies, but instead of creamy varieties, use vinegar-based ones to add flavor without fat.
