I love grilling vegetables. Here is an adaptation of a veggie-tarian burger that we love!
2 portobello mushroom caps
1 small zucchini
1 small yellow squash
4 leafs spinach
4 sprigs arugula
1/2 avacado
2 T mayonaise
Tomato slices
2 whole wheat kaiser rolls
olive oil
italian seasoning
(mozz. cheese optional)
Directions:
1. Pre-heat grill.
2. Cut zucchini and squash in half through the skinny side. Create 1/4 inch slices out of the two halves.
3. Lightly spray/brush olive oil on mushrooms and zucchini/squash. Dust with italian seasoning.
4. Grill mushrooms and zucchini/squash for a few minutes per side until grill lines form on them and mushrooms get soft. Toast rolls.
5. Chop avocado and mix with mayo. Spread on bottom and top of each roll.
6. Layer spinach and arugula next, followed by veggies.

Grilled Radishes. RADISHES?
We recently had the awesome opportunity to join a farm co-op through our friend Michelle's job at the Center For Discovery. The Center is a mostly residential school for highly special needs students. They have a working organic farm that people are allowed to pay into to receive produce and we decided to split it with Michelle and Mike this year. This will lead us into having some very strange new things to eat - exciting!
Tonight we needed to figure out what to do with the radishes we got. Nikki and I don't really like radishes cold in salad or stand-alone. I found this website for a great grilled radish recipe. Check out the link above: I made some of my alterations listed here below...
* 20 ounces radishes, sliced
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
* 1 cube ice
* salt and pepper to taste, dash paprika, dash onion powder
* 1 whole shallot, sliced thin.
Directions
1. Preheat the grill for high heat.
2. Place everything on a double layer of aluminum foil large enough to wrap contents. Season with salt and pepper. Tightly seal foil around contents.
3. Place foil packet on the grill, and cook 20 minutes, or until radishes are tender.
They taste kind of like cooked cabbage, but much sweeter. Spice/season to taste!
