Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on a tray or work surface. Lightly spray both sides with olive oil cooking spray.

Preheat a grill or grill pan over a medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables in batches until both sides are nicely charred and the vegetables are just tender, about 10 minutes for the pepper, about 8 minutes for the eggplant and onion, and about 6 minutes for the zucchini.

When the vegetables are cool enough to handle, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and transfer to a large bowl.  In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar and oregano. Pour over the vegetables and toss. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
