Marinated Veggie Salad



8 oz. small whole mushrooms (fresh not canned) 2 small summer squash (either zucchini or yellow), sliced
1 small red bell pepper
1 clove garlic (or more!), minced
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 TBS olive oil
1 TBS sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp pepper

Put veggies into a plastic bag (or bowl). Mix the rest of the ingredients up to make the marinade and pour over the veggies. Seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours, making sure you turn the bag once in a while. Serve it up in a bowl that's ready for picnicking!
