Prepare grill for direct grilling. Cook potatoes in boiling water until tender. Drain; cool slightly. Cut potatoes into thick slices. Meanwhile, combine juice, vinegar, garlic, salt and black pepper in small bowl; whisk in thew first measure of olive oil. Set aside.
Wrap each prosciutto slice around 1 piece cheese and 1 asparagus spear. Thread cheese bundles onto wooden skewers. (Soak wooden skewers and picks in hot water 30 minutes to prevent burning.) Brush bundles with remaining olive oil.
Grill bell peppers, skin sides down, over medium heat 8 minutes or until skins are charred. Place in large resealable food storage bag; seal. Let stand 5 minutes; discard skins. Grill remaining vegetables on covered grill over medium heat 2 to 5 minutes on each side or until tender. Grill cheese bundles over medium heat until lightly browned. Arrange vegetables and cheese bundles in large glass dish; drizzle with juice mixture, turning to coat. Let stand 15 minutes.
