Grilled Veggie Kabobs

Grilled veggie kabobs are a perfect side for any cook out!  You will be amazed at the flavor these veggies get from the grill AND they are super quick.  Make your own kabobs with whatever vegetables you have on hand for your next gathering.  Also, I love how pretty all the colors look in a big serving bowl!

Servings: 6
Serving Size: 1/6 of all veggies
Points Plus: 1pp
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook/Grill Time: 3-12 minutes


Ingredients:
1 8 oz. package mushrooms
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
1 package cherry tomatoes

Directions:
Throughly wash all veggies.  Slice and cut the peppers into wedge sized pieces.  Using bamboo or wooden skewers, begin to assemble the kabobs with veggies.  I think it works best to keep all veggies of the same type on each kabob (all mushrooms on one, all peppers on another etc). Start the grill and heat to a medium temperature level.  Place the kabobs on the grill and cook until veggies are tender, yet crisp; constantly rotate the skewers through out the cook time.  Cook times will vary by vegetables.  For some general guidelines, we used the following cook times:

Tomatoes - 3-5 minutes
Mushrooms - 5-10 minutes
Peppers - 10-12 minutes

When veggies are finished cooking, combine all in a large serving bowl and enjoy!

Tip:
Cook to taste with these grilled veggies.  Some people prefer very cooked veggies (think sauté style), while others prefer more crunch.  We err more on the side of liking more crispness to our veggies (the cook times above reflect this).
