Ingredients for Grilled Veggies
Vegetables – Choose a variety of fresh vegetables from the list above or use what’s your fridge. If using firm veggies they can be slightly pre-cooked (like potatoes, carrots, or cauliflower).
Seasoning Mix – This flavorful sesoning mix adds flavor to the veggies. Once cooked, I love to sprinkle with fresh herbs from the garden like basil, parsley, or cilantro.
How to Grill Vegetables
Grilled vegetables are super easy to make and are full of delish flavor!
- Toss prepared vegetables in seasoning mix on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Grill veggies on a preheated grill, in a grilling basket, or on a grill mat until cooked to the desired doneness.
- Garnish with fresh herbs or lemon wedges, if desired. Serve warm.
Fast and flavorful, grilled vegetables can be cooked on the grill next to steak, salmon, shrimp skewers, or chicken. Easy peasy!
Tips for Perfect Grilled Veggies
- Timing: For the best results, be sure to toss or turn vegetables frequently as some will cook faster than others. Set cooked ones aside and when they are all cooked, you can wrap them in foil and keep them warm on the grill or in the oven until ready to use.
- Serving: Sprinkle finished vegetables with parmesan cheese or fresh herbs before serving. You can also drizzle them with chimichurri or pesto.
- Meal Prep: Grill up an extra batch or two and enjoy them as an addition to salads, stir them into pasta sauce or serve as wraps for weekday lunches.
- Leftovers: Keep leftover grilled vegetables in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
