1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon of dried basil

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Screws Pasta:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the screws pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Grill the Zucchini and Peppers:

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, slice the zucchinis and bell peppers into thin, even strips.

Add the zucchini and bell pepper slices to the bowl with the marinade. Toss well to coat the vegetables evenly.

Place the zucchini and bell pepper slices on the hot grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the vegetables are tender-crisp. Take them off the grill and set aside.

3. Combine the Pasta and Vegetables:

In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked screws pasta and grilled zucchini and bell peppers. Toss gently to mix everything together. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

4. Serve and Enjoy:
