Grilled Veggies

Ingredients are limited by your imagination. Various combinations may take some experimentation, eg potatoes, carrots, broccoli are some veggies that will cook much slower than squash.

Slice your chosen veggies (hint: if you choose a slow cooking veggie, slice it very thin and pre cook in microwave)

Combine ingredients in a large bowl

Spray with fat free, no cal Pam

Season with(choose one ):
1) Salt and pepper (red or black)
2) Cajun Seasoning
3) Chicken & rib rub - use sparingly!
4) Anything else you might like

Place all this in a grilling wok - I found mine at Ace Hardware, of all places

Cook on grill over a heat between med and high

Stir often - especially if you use onions, as they burn more quickly than other veggies do

This dish warms up in the microwave very nicely

Since veggies are a free food on my diet I fix this dish often.

 

[San54]

Sounds yummy.Especially the seasoning idea.
Thanks
