‘Tis the season for grilling, and although I love a good burger on the grill, vegetables on the grill are really something special. If you’re trying to pack in more veggies for yourself or your kids, grilling them imparts a delicious flavor that really brings out the natural flavors in the veggies. These Gluten-Free Grilled Vegetable Skewers are a fine example.
For this recipe, I made a tasty sauce that I basted the veggies with using San-J’s 28% less sodium tamari, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. I used yellow squash, zucchini, mushrooms, bell peppers, onion, and cherry tomatoes but you can omit any of those or add other veggies you like. The key is to ensure they are uniform in size.
