Next, wrap the beets in foil, separate them by color, and place them on the grill along with the two acorn squashes. Grill them for 40 to 45 minutes or until tender.
Next, coat the remaining vegetables in 1/4 cup of olive oil, salt, and pepper and, with about 25 minutes left in the cooking process of the beets and squash, add on the potatoes and Brussels sprouts and cook until tender.
With 10 minutes left in the cooking process, add on the green beans, onions, fennel, carrots, and kale, and cook until tender and grill marks form. The kale will only take a minute or two.
Remove all the vegetables from the grill and let them rest for 5 to 6 minutes.
