This is the best squash recipe I've ever had! Yellow squash, zucchini and red onion are drizzled with a simple marinade of olive oil, garlic and white wine vinegar, then grilled to perfection! The last step is to add the feta cheese and drizzle over more marinade, you won't believe how good this is and how easy!
