Vegan BBQ!
The best part of summer is the barbeque!!
Being new to the vegan lifestyle, I was not sure what I could BBQ. After some research and a chat with my Chef, I got creative with marinades and discovered that BBQ vegetables are excellent. Vegetables do not take long to pick up a marinades flavor. I only let mine sit maybe an hour and the flavor was delicious. Also, since vegetables are fat free, they do not char like meat, so that nasty burnt taste that sometimes happens with meat is completely avoided. Just be sure to cook on a medium temperature.
In the photo above, I did grilled eggplant marinated in olive oil, black pepper, sesame oil and soy sauce. The asparagus were done with olive oil, sriracha and black pepper. Simple and delicious. Other favorite vegetables of mine to grill are portobello mushrooms, zucchini and peppers. I also love potatoes with carrots mixed with onions done in tin foil.
Most vegetables can be grilled so be creative and have a happy and healthy summer!!
