Grill peppers, onions and mushrooms in a basket over hot coals until onions and peppers begin to brown (approx. 45 minutes). Add zucchine slices and grill for 15-20 minutes more. Add shrimp and grill until just pink. Serve salad immediately with crunchy bread and a crisp Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc.
