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.

  • 1 zucchini – washed, sliced 1cm / 1/4in thickness, halved

  • 8 button mushrooms – washed, halved
  • 8 cherry tomatoes – washed, stems removed
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 bamboo skewers 30cm / 12in – soak in water for 5 min
