What’s Cooking For Supper?
Sunday supper at my house is the perfect time for family gatherings and outdoor cookouts. Who doesn’t love a good barbecue.
Chicken or fish, burgers or hotdogs? Everyone has their own personal preference. That’s all fine and dandy. Just so we are eating healthy. And perfect way to pull a healthy meal to together is to serve mixed grilled vegetables.
The following is one of my favorite recipes for grilled vegetables.

When ready to barbecue, place vegetables, cut side down, on gas grill over medium-low heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium-high coals. Cook 14 to 18 minutes or until crisp-tender, turning once and brushing with basting oil to keep surfaces moist. (Cooking time will vary according to size of vegetables.) Cut vegetables into bite-size pieces.
