Soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent them from burning.
Wash and chop all the vegetables into 1-inch pieces, slice the mushrooms in half lengthwise and place them in a large bowl, set aside.
12 white button mushrooms, 1 red onion, 1 small zucchini, 1 red bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper, 1 green bell pepper
Whisk the olive oil with pesto, salt, and ground pepper. Drizzle this over the vegetables and let marinate for 30 minutes, up to overnight.
2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tablespoon prepared pesto sauce, ½ tsp kosher salt, ½ ground pepper
Thread the vegetables on the skewers, leaving a place at the ends to be able to grab them.
Preheat the grill over high heat. Grill the kabobs for 10-15 minutes or until tender, turning them over a few times. Serve with more pesto on the side for dipping.

We do not recommend freezing these because of the water content.

These can be made on a grill pan, grill, or in the oven, see above on how to do that.
Make sure that you soak your wooden skewers for about 20 minutes so they do not burn.
