BBQ delights

BBQ Veggies

Cut up garlic, red and green peppers, zucchini and red onions (or whatever quick-cooking veggies you prefer) and marinate for half an hour in decent olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Place in tin foil and bbq for about five minutes. Yummy.

You can also use a grill pan if you have one..

BBQ Baked Potatoes

Microwave largish potatoes for about 8 minutes or until nearly done. Remove, cut in half but NOT apart, and put butter, chopped onions (any kind) and fresh dill in the middle.) Wrap tightly in tin foil and place on bbq for 5-10 minutes.

Remove foil and eat. Yum yum.

Grilled Pineapple.

Take one fresh whole pineapple and peel. Cut into slices and cut core out of whole slice. Take each slice and dip into beaten egg and dip into a mixture of shredded coconut and a spoonful of brown sugar. Grill till golden.

Grilled Zucchini

Good for overlarge zucchinis you get when you don't pick them in time from the garden. Cut the zucchinis into lengthwise slices and brush with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder before grilling.

Roasted mushrooms are delicious. Don't really need any seasoning. They get really nice and hard on the outside, and really juicy inside! I usually just put them whole on kebabs

Eggplant Sandwich Provencal (courtesy of WeightWatchers.com)

Ingredients


1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/4 medium raw eggplant, about 2 slices, 1/2-inch-thick each
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 slice high-fiber bread, multigrain or sandwich roll
12 medium basil, leaves
1/2 cup canned pimento, or about 6 pieces roasted red pepper


Instructions


Sprinkle salt on both sides of eggplant slices. Allow it to sit on a wire rack or in a colander for 20 to 30 minutes. This takes out extra moisture.


Preheat grill, grill pan or sauté pan. Brush eggplant slices with olive oil.


Grill or sauté eggplant slice until cooked but not mushy, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Allow eggplant to cool, then drizzle balsamic vinegar on bread slices and assemble the sandwich: bread, eggplant, basil, red pepper, bread.

NoDay that's very similar to one I make. I put raddichio lettuce on the sandwich and melt low fat mozzarella cheese on the grilled eggplant slices. Mmm. I'm getting hungry just reading the thread.
