For the average person, grills and vegetables are not the perfect pairing. Classically, steaks, chicken, hamburgers, hotdogs, and ribs are the only items meant for a grill. This is a backwards way of thinking because the grill is one of the best culinary tools for cooking vegetables. Using a grill to cook vegetables is one of the easiest and tastiest ways to prepare them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people have the desire to eat more vegetables<\/a>, but they don\u2019t find creative ways to cook them. It\u2019s easy to lose interest in the same salad that accompanies your meals, but vegetables don\u2019t always have to be a side dish. You can bring vegetables to the center stage, especially if you grill specific varieties in unique ways. For example, marinate a portobello mushroom cap, grill it, and eat it as your main course. Slice a cauliflower head into thick steaks for a vegan steak alternative. The possibilities are endless!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Prepare Vegetables For The Grill<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In order to grill vegetables to perfection, it all comes down to the way you prepare them. An ultra-thin vegetable will burn to a crisp within a minute or two. You won\u2019t even taste the vegetable at that point. It\u2019s ideal to give your vegetables sufficient surface area, meaning that they need to be big enough for you to see grill marks. Cutting them too small increases the risk of them falling through the grates. There is a list of common vegetables to grill below and how you should prepare them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
