Vegetables aren’t what you typically think of when marinating, but they benefit greatly from some time in a delicious mixture. Also, being that this marinade is used for vegetables, it can be reused. Marinade your vegetables one night and your meat the next night. Just be sure to toss that marinade out after it has come into contact with raw meat!
