Use these vegetable skewer combos as a main or as a side. Most of your time will be spent in the preparation of threading the vegetables. So try to get some help to cut down this time and you can have a chat in the process! If you have any left-overs just thread the remaining combinations left. We have barbecued the skewers and it can also be grilled.

Ingredients

  • 1 large red onion – peeled, sliced in half, quartered
  • 1 zucchini – washed, sliced 1cm / 1/4in thickness, halved
  • 1-2 carrots – peeled, rinsed, sliced 1cm / 1/4in thickness
