By Maria BentsonLadies and gentlemen, grilling season is upon us (!!), debatably the best time of year. Warm weather is finally making its way in and summer is approaching quickly. There truly is nothing better than having the first grill out of the year, mingling with family and friends, and eating outside on a Minnesota night. In all honesty, you can put anything on the grill. From an assortment of meats, veggies, fruits, and even breads, you really can’t go wrong. Everyone knows that meat on the grill is a thousand times better than making it in a pan or baking it because of the char, grill taste it gets, but spicing it up and adding vegetables and fruits is truly where it’s at. Veggies and fruit on the barbeque is top notch. Here are a few tips on how to make your vegetables stand out from the rest of the neighborhood dads.
Fruit on the other hand can just be added directly to the grill based on the size of the pieces you cut. Lightly brush the fruit with olive oil to make sure it doesn’t stick. The grill brings out the natural sugar flavors in the fruit and gives them a beautiful caramelized outer-edge, almost making it like dessert (ok, yum). Below I will list some of the vegetables and fruits that I enjoy on the grill to help get you started on your adventure into making your grilling season a hit. Vegetables: Zucchini Bell Peppers (yellow, orange, red, green) Jalapenos Squash Potatoes (little reds/sweet) Asparagus Onion Mushrooms Corn Cherry Tomatoes Broccoli Eggplant Fruits: Pineapple Mango Peaches Strawberries Watermelon Bananas Figs Apples Avocado Kiwi
