We're still talking about grilling in honor of National Barbecue Month, and this week it's grilled vegetables, probably hands-down my favorite thing to cook on the grill. Grilling gives vegetables the same type of sweet, concentrated flavor that roasting them does, and if you have family members who are reluctant to eat vegetables, grilling the veggies might make them change their mind!
If vegetables can be sliced into pieces big enough to not fall through the grill, they can simply be brushed with olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper, and grilled on each side until grill marks appear and the vegetable is cooked through. But if you want to grill vegetables in smaller pieces, it's worth investing in a grilling pan. You can see a photo of my favorite grill-top pan in a BlogHer post I wrote about Cooking Garden Veggies on the Grill. That post also has tips for grilling vegetables, as well as some good recipes for grilling summer squash, eggplant, and winter squash. After you check out those ideas, come back and see more about how BlogHer food bloggers are cooking vegetables on the grill.

Lots of grilled vegetable dishes use assorted vegetables cooked together on the grill, like the kabobs of Grilled Vegetables above from Our Life in the Kitchen. Karen says this is so ridiculously easy to make that it's hardly worth calling it a recipe, but you won't think that when you taste the grilled vegetables.

Finally, asparagus is wonderful when it's grilled and Grilled Asparagus with Parmesan is a big favorite at my house. You'll have to invest in a grill pan for cut-up asparagus, but whole asparagus spears can just be laid across the grill if you turn them carefully. Trust me, grilled asparagus is worth the trouble.
