    Grilling is a wonderful way to bring out the flavors of vegetables. Using metal skewers eliminates the need for soaking wooden ones and ensures the veggies don't fall through the grates.

    Why you'll love this recipe

    • The vegetables are basted with a rosemary-garlic marinade giving them a boost of Mediterranean flavor.
    • You can make it in about half an hour with a handful of ingredients.
    • It's a simple summertime dish everyone will enjoy.

    Ingredients

    Vegetables: To make 4 kabobs, you will need approximately one box of mushrooms, 2 medium zucchini, and one red bell pepper. The amounts do not need to be precise. You simply want enough to fit on the skewers.

    Marinade: For the quick marinade, you will need olive oil, fresh rosemary, fresh garlic, and salt and pepper.

    For the complete list of ingredients with measurements plus recipe instructions, please see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

    Instructions

    1. Prep the vegetables and combine olive oil, rosemary, garlic, and salt and pepper in a small bowl for the marinade.
    2. Thread the vegetables in an alternating pattern on metal skewers. Brush the olive oil mixture on all sides.
    3. Place the kabobs on a pre-heated grill.
    4. Grill, turning as needed, until the vegetables are tender and browned on the outside.

    Serving suggestions

    This recipe makes 4 kabobs. I like to prepare 1-2 kabobs per person, depending on how many other dishes will be served along with them.

    For an optional dipping sauce, double the olive oil, rosemary, and garlic mixture and reserve half of it for serving with the grilled veggies. They are also delicious dipped in homemade Hummus Without Tahini or Greek Yogurt Sauce.

    And these Mediterranean vegetables pair well with everything from veggie burgers to rice pilaf. Try them with some of these easy recipes:

    • Mediterranean Crumbled Tofu Tacos
    • Dairy-Free Sun-Dried Tomato Dip
    • Mediterranean Cannellini Bean Salad

    Storing

    Leftovers can be covered and refrigerated up to 3 days. Enjoy the leftover grilled vegetables cold, at room temperature, or reheated.

    Just like oven-roasted vegetables, they make a great addition to salads and Buddha bowls. Or simply eat them as a snack.

    FAQ

    What vegetables are good for grilling?

    Choose ones that not only taste great together but cook in similar times. Zucchini, eggplant, mushrooms, bell peppers, and onions are good choices. Potatoes require a longer cooking time but can be parboiled before grilling.

    At what temperature should vegetables be grilled?

    Medium heat, between 350°F and 400°F is perfect for grilling vegetables. They will stay tender on the inside while getting lightly charred on the outside.

    What if I don't have an outdoor grill?

    You can prepare this recipe with similar results by using an indoor grill pan on your stove or by baking the skewers in the oven.
