Grilled Vegetables Marinades & Meals

Grilled Vegetables My Body My Kitchen

Many of us take advantage of the summer months to grill outdoors and I wanted to share a few ideas for vegetable marinades with you. In addition to the marinades, I also wanted to show you how you can make use of the grilled vegetables in different meals.

I tested out three different marinades for grilling vegetables then made these three different meals. I used about 2 lbs of sliced vegetables (eggplant, zucchini and bell peppers) for each meal.

Grilled Vegetable Marinades Balsamic Honey Mustard Lemon Herb My Body My Kitchen

The three marinades were lemon herb, balsamic and honey mustard. The first meal is a vegetarian chickpea pasta salad with feta cheese. The second meal is a vegan grain bowl with tofu and edamame. The third meal is wrap a with chicken. Each of these meals has 19 to 26 grams of protein and 15 to 17 grams of fiber. Feel free to use any of these marinades to create any of the these meals; I simply paired them for simplicity.

Meal Prep: Cajun Veggie Rice, Salmon & Sauteed Spinach

Cajun cuisine is a product of the French Acadian people who were deported from Canada by the British to Louisiana’s Acadiana region. You will find many vegetables in the Cajun cuisine, but celery, onion and bell peppers are considered to be the Holy Trinity in Cajun dishes. Although there is no specific seasoning blend used in Cajun cuisine, many times cayenne pepper and black pepper are found in Cajun seasoning blends, even though Cajun food isn’t necessarily very spicy.
