Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Cut the zucchini into thick slices and the bell peppers into large strips. Slice the red onion into wedges. Trim the asparagus ends and keep them whole. Clean and slice the mushrooms into thick slices.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until well mixed.
Add the prepared vegetables to the bowl and gently toss them in the dressing until they are evenly coated.
Place the vegetables on the preheated grill using a grill basket or directly on the grill grates. Arrange them evenly to ensure even cooking. Grill for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and have grill marks.
Once cooked, remove the vegetables from the grill and place them on a serving platter.
Sprinkle with fresh thyme before serving.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a main course.
