Grilled Vegetable Skewers Recipe

  • Yield: 6 - 7 skewers 1x
  • Diet: Vegan

Description

Eat the rainbow with these easy vegetable skewers! They are made of a colorful mix of squash, bell peppers, zucchini and red onion. These skewers are simple to make and brushed in a light mix of olive oil & Italian seasoning. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 2 zucchini, sliced
  • 2 yellow squash, sliced
  • 2 green bell pepper
  • 2 red bell pepper
  • 2 yellow bell pepper 
  • 2 orange bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Soak your skewers in water for 20 – 30 minutes. 
  2. While the skewers soak, chop your vegetables. 
  3. Whisk together the olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt & pepper.
  4. Assemble your skewers: try to pierce each vegetable in its center and then slide it down the skewer, leaving some room at both ends of the skewer to hold it. I like to alternate the colors of the vegetables or go in a rainbow pattern (so pretty!).
  5. Brush the vegetables with the olive oil mixture on all sides. 
  6. Grill over medium high heat for 10 – 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and lightly charred.

Notes

Note: if you don’t have Italian Seasoning, you can substitute a mix of oregano and basil. You can also leave out the herbs entirely (just season with olive oil, salt and pepper) and these skewers are still tasty.
