Start Your Weekend with Grilled Parmesan Vegetables

Now that the work week is finally coming to a close, it's time to sit back and start your weekend with a bang!

This Tuesday marked the first day of Fall which means cooler weather and more opportunities to spend your weekends enjoying the outdoors. Tonight, grab some of your favorite vegetables for a new twist on ways to grill. Here is a recipe for Grilled Parmesan Vegetables:

Ingredients:
  • 2 medium zucchini and squash, cut into 1/2 inch thick slices
  • 2 medium red, yellow, green peppers, cut into 1 1/2 inch thick slices
  • 1/3 cup italian dressing
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

  • First, make sure you have enough gas in your propane tank (if not, you might want to invest in a GasWatch Propane Level Indicator so you'll know the amount in the future)
  • Soak the cut vegetables in the italian dressing, letting them sit for 8-10 minutes
  • Turn on your grill to medium heat and place the vegetables on the grates
  • Grill on one side for 5 minutes, then turn and sprinkle with parmesan cheese, grill on this side for another 5 minutes or until cheese has melted and vegetables are crisp

Grab yourself a frosty beverage and pair this with grilled chicken or steak for a zesty twist to your vegetable sides. Enjoy!
