Wash all the vegetables thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the zucchinis into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Core and slice the bell peppers into strips. Peel and cut the red onion into thick wedges. Trim the woody ends off the asparagus.
In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced zucchini, bell pepper strips, onion wedges, and asparagus spears.
Drizzle the vegetables with extra virgin olive oil and toss to coat them evenly.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh rosemary over the vegetables. Toss again to ensure all pieces are well seasoned.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, place it on the grill and allow it to heat up.
Place the seasoned vegetables on the grill, either directly or using a grill pan, ensuring they are spread out in an even layer.
Grill the vegetables for about 7-8 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
Once done, remove the vegetables from the grill and transfer them back to the mixing bowl.
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the grilled vegetables and give them a final toss.
Serve the grilled veggie medley immediately as a side dish or a wholesome Paleo main course.
