3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage or rosemary
Sea salt, to taste

Directions:
Submerge herb sprigs in water 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine vinegar, chopped herb, salt, and pepper. Add squash and mushrooms; toss to coat.

Grill, covered, 10 to 15 minutes or until squash is crisp-tender, turning once or twice to brown evenly. Add lemon halves, cut sides down, to grill rack the last 5 minutes of grilling.
Transfer vegetables from grill rack to a bowl. Squeeze two lemon halves over vegetables. Cover and let stand 5 minutes. Serve warm with remaining lemon halves for squeezing.
