I come from a grilling family. For real. You will find any member of my family on a grill during the summer, fall, spring, and winter... But especially the summer. Being a vegetarian does put me in a unique place for grilling; the usual burgers, pork chops, and brats just won't cut it. That is the sole reason I have gone on a meat-free grilling search.
It may have started for completely selfish grilling reasons, but this search has led me to some fantastic recipes that I cannot help but share! Here are some of my new must-try veggie only recipes... The burgers and desserts will be coming later this weekl!
Veggies
Grilled Brussels Sprouts
I absolutely love Brussels sprouts. In fact, this sweet chili recipe is still made almost weekly in our house. Since the hubs may form a revolt at some point, having a new Brussels sprouts recipe up my sleeve is not a bad idea. This one uses lemon zest, salt, and pepper as the main ingredients. There are some other spices mixed in, but it looks incredible easy and delicious!
Grilled Cabbage Wedges
These look incredible! Cabbages are high in fiber, have cholesterol lowing qualities, and help with healthy digestion. Add that to how beautiful they look on a plate and you've got a winning combo! These cabbages are simply cut into wedges prepped for the grill, and grilled. Add the slightly spicy, fresh cilantro lime dressing for a wonderfully refreshing summer dish.
Cilantro-Lime Veggie Kabobs
Grilling is not grilling without a kabob. Usually, we keep ours simple with some sea salt and olive oil. But, I am willing to mix it up a bit for this yummy looking sweet and tangy marinade! These kabobs are beautiful alone, or can be placed atop the barley and kale salad shown here as well.
