grilled vegetables

Barbecued garden fare

Grilled vegetables are vegetables cooked over direct heat, typically on a grate above flame or coals.

The high heat caramelizes sugars and creates char marks that add smoky flavor.

Common choices include zucchini, bell peppers, eggplant, onions, and asparagus.
