My friend, Renee, made this for Christmas Eve dinner several years ago and since that night, this recipe has passed through many hands. She found it on allrecipes.com and it takes a bit of work to chop up the vegetables but all that chopping is worth it. The balsamic vinegar adds a flavor which can't be beat!

Use a 9x13 pan or bigger (it will look like it will overflow, but don't worry, it shrinks)
Ingredients
1/3 cup chopped red onion
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
2 portobello mushrooms, sliced
