Once July rolls around, we make this grilled vegetables recipe just about every week. It’s perfect for mid-late summer, when all sorts of veggies are coming into season, and it’s too hot to turn on the oven. In my opinion, peppers, summer squash, onions, mushrooms, and corn are the best vegetables to grill. Cut into similar-sized pieces and skewered, they all cook at about the same rate. And when you slide them off the skewer, you get a mouthwatering mix of textures and flavors – the mushrooms are meaty, the corn is crisp, the squash is soft, and the peppers and onions are nicely sweet. Drizzled in a punchy sauce, they become a delicious summer meal that you can make in about 20 minutes from start to finish.

Grilled Vegetables Serving Suggestions
Grilled vegetables are a delicious, easy grilling side dish. If you already have the grill going for veggie burgers, mushroom burgers, or black bean burgers, putting on a few grilled veggie kabobs is an easy way to complete the meal. These skewers would also be a perfect side with BBQ Jackfruit Sandwiches, Cauliflower Po’ Boys, or a hearty salad like my couscous, orzo, pasta, or potato salad. Alternatively, make them the main meal! Drizzle the finished grilled vegetables with tangy Greek salad dressing, cilantro lime dressing, or chimichurri and serve them over quinoa or farro with tzatziki sauce and lots of pita. Not in the mood for tzatziki? Pesto, hummus, or chipotle sauce would be delicious too. Save leftover grilled vegetables and sauce for making sandwiches throughout the week!
