FreshPoint

Hi, I’m Chef Dan with FreshPoint, and with summer barbecuing season upon us I really love grilling vegetables. I’m going to go over a few suggestions of what I consider the best vegetables to grill.

So what are the best vegetables to grill?

I prefer the softer ones such as squashes, zucchini, and mushrooms—even asparagus and peppers work great grilled. Portobella mushrooms are a wonderful meat substitute. Season them with a little olive oil, some thyme, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper…grill them up, put them on a bun, maybe a dab of Caesar dressing and some romaine lettuce and you’ve got a wonderful vegetarian burger for your guests.
