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.

(bottom) Grilled veggie corn boats with sweet potato in husks 

 
(left) Watermelon - toss with arugula, cheese, balsamic vinegar for a salad

(right) Pineapple with honey, lime juice, cinnamon


(top) Zucchini roll with goat cheese and kalamata olives 
 
(bottom) Summer veggie crostini

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?

Whoa! These all sound so fun and yummy! I especially like the look of grilled peaches with dark chocolate centres. And I am curious about grilled scallions because let's face it, anything with cheese sauce and I'm in!
