Ingredients

• 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
• 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
• 1 zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
• 1 red onion, cut into wedges
• 8-10 cherry tomatoes
• 8-10 button mushrooms
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Vegetables

Wash and dry all the vegetables thoroughly. Cut the bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion into evenly sized chunks to ensure even cooking.

Step 2: Season the Veggies

In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

Step 3: Assemble the Skewers

Thread the vegetables onto skewers, alternating colors and textures for an appealing look. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.

Step 4: Grill to Perfection

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Transfer the skewers to a serving platter, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately with a side of vegan tzatziki or hummus.

Tips:

• For extra flavor, marinate the vegetables for 30 minutes before grilling.
• Experiment with other veggies like eggplant or asparagus.
• Serve over a bed of quinoa or couscous for a complete meal.
