Vegetables on the Grill
In the throes of these gorgeous, hazy days of summer, BBQ grills are out in all their glory. (Or at least they want to be!) And what better way to show off your grilling skills, than a fresh, juicy, Canadian Prime steak Cauliflower Steak?
Yes, Cauliflower Steak. “Loaded Grilled Cauliflower” steaks to be exact.
We promise that when you taste these grilled vegetable recipes, which range from decadent and sinful to delicate and light to downright ingenious, that marbled cut of meat will be but a distant memory.
Local. Seasonal. Community.
And why not? It’s local. And, it’s produce season! In these warm months, Farmers’ Markets are seemingly everywhere. (Find one in your Ontario neighbourhood HERE.)
Pick-Your-Own or U-Pick farms, which have been waiting all year for this season, are stocked and at the ready. (List of Ontario Pick-Your-Own farms HERE.)
So, pack the kids; or don’t (sorry, no list of local babysitters HERE). But get out there and explore your community’s outdoor farm-to-table offerings –or– the produce section of your favourite air-conditioned grocery. Either way, with dishes like Cheddar Bacon Ranch Corn, (we caution that) you may suddenly find your backyard crawling with hungry neighbours.
