Any ideas for cooking vegetarian food on a grill? It's too hot to heat up the kitchen, and I am tired of luke warm to cold food.
Thanks

aislinga,
Do you like mushrooms? When my husband has the occasional hamburger on the grill, I grill a large portabella mushroom.
I spray the mushroom with olive oil spray and sprinkle lightly with seasoning salt. Make sure you spray the grill (I use Reynolds "release" foil) Grill until done, flipping once. I like to grill a few onions on the grill and top the mushroom with that and a little fat free ranch dressing on a whole wheat bun. Yummm!:yumm:

That sounds really good, especially with the onions. Thanks

Eggplant is great to put on the grill and so is zucchini.
If you like Kohlrabi - bread it and grill it or fry it in a pan.

Thanks for the reminder about eggplant and zucchini. And Portabello mushrooms make great burgers!
It's almost time to get out the BBQ for summer.

It's too hot to heat up the kitchen...
At the risk of sounding non-organic, couldn't you microwave cook something you'd prepared earlier?
It's pretty hot here in Portugal, but my wife keeps her kitchen cool by just such ruses. I suppose BBQs are a possibility, but I've never fancied eating stuff off a grill that has animal fat all over it.
By the way, that subject title 'vegetarian grilling'... I thought someone had thought up a new way of torturing us hippie-dippie meat-avoiders. Glad they haven't (yet).

Thanks Fatale,
I don't care for eggplant, but I do like kohlrabi, I'll give it a try.
Nevd,
"couldn't you microwave ..."
Well mostly because I like grilling, carmelization being a gift from the gods.
I do use the microwave too, but I think that something is lost, either in texture or flavor, and I tend to eat less when dinner is really flavorful because I slow down to savor each morsal.
