Healthy Summer Recipes: Grilling with Fruit and Veggies

Have you been looking for a grill day that doesn’t have to have meat? You might be 
looking for a fruit veggie barbeque. Grilled fruits and vegetables can make for an 
excellent and healthy meal. Cooking them over actual fire can bring out a bouquet of 
smells and an assortment of flavors that will dance across your taste buds, but you’re 
probably curious to know which can go great together.  This article is geared towards 
sharing a few ideas that you might want to try. 

Grilled Veggie Medley

This is a relatively simple and easy recipe to make. All you have to do is lay out onions, 
yellow bell peppers, tomato slices, and zucchini slices on a sheet of foil. You can drizzle 
them with your favorite olive oil and season with sea salt, and ground black pepper to 
taste. Once the grill is properly hot, place the foil with the veggies on the grill. Let it cook 
for at least 15 minutes. Once the vegetables have slightly blacked edges you can 
remove them from the grill to cool down. Now you’re ready to serve up some great 
healthy food!

Grilled Mushroom Bites

Mushrooms can be amazing. They are extremely nutrient dense, and they contain 
massive doses of selenium, potassium, copper, and protein. Here’s an easy way to 
make them a nice snack or side dish. Heat the grill to at least 325 degrees. Oil the foil in 
the grill with a small amount of olive oil or butter. Rub 15 mushrooms with olive oil and 
fresh garlic, then place the mushrooms on the foil in the grill. Make a mixture using a 
half cup of parmesan cheese, 2 teaspoons of basil flakes, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and 1 
teaspoon of sea salt. After 10 minutes, sprinkle a liberal amount of the parmesan 
mixture over the mushrooms and continue cooking them for another 5 minutes. Remove 
and serve after cooling!
 
Grilled Asparagus

Asparagus is high in B vitamins, and contains a great dose of anti-inflammatories and 
antioxidants. This interesting take on a simple restaurant dish will have you curious to 
try this delicious asparagus recipe! Take about 20 asparagus spears, 12 halved cherry 
tomatoes, and 2 sliced onions and place them on foil in a grill after sprinkling them with 
fresh garlic, seas salt, black ground pepper, a light sprinkle of cumin and paprika, and a 
light drizzle of lemon juice. Alternatively, you can also use a steak rub seasoning mix to 
achieve a desirable flavor. Once they are properly browned, you can serve them.
