BBQ Grilled Summer Fruit and Veggie Recipes

Posted by Alexandra C. | Wednesday August 15, 201220 comments


Have we mentioned yet that we have a wee obsession with summer BBQs? You can trust us when we say that when it comes to BBQs, we know our stuff. In fact, we even hosted our own CA staff soiree not too long ago (complete with tiki torches and all!). 

Before the summer comes to a close, we think it's time for one last major BBQ. And what better way to wrap it up then with some delicious, in-season fruits and veggies? Only, these ain't your plain jane veggies and dip types, we're talking about succulent, savoury and sweet grilled fruits and veggies. 

We at ChickAdvisor think that grilled veggies and especially grilled fruit are completely underrated. So, to give them some well deserved recognition (for being amazingly tasty), we've rounded up 16 recipes for your grilling tastebuds.

Which one of these recipes are you drooling over, which one are you dying to try? Are you a summer time fruit, veggie or meat griller?

Grilled potatoes (for a twist on a baked potato) and grilled zucchini are yummy! I would love to try other veggies as well but something wont let me try the fruit. I think the smokey flavor from the grill may ruin it for me.

I'm a huge fan of grilled vegetables! Delicious. I grew up with my dad grilling up banana slices & then he drizzles them with REAL maple syrup. I love them. I'm not adoring the idea of other grilled fruit, though!

Grilled pineapple tastes YUM with a warm drizzle of nutella on top and a sprinkle of pine nuts!
(saw this on The Food Network ;)
