Grill your Fruits and Veggies!
TOMATOES
• When grilling larger tomatoes, coring & halving them will add a smoky char to that fresh tomato – always cut along the equator.
• For smaller tomatoes, use skewers or a grill pan so tomatoes don’t fall through.
Grill with TomatoesPEPPERS
• If grilling peppers on skewers or in a grilling pan, make sure all the veggies are about the same size so they all cook evenly together.
• To grill a whole bell pepper or long sweet pepper, start by brushing the outside with olive oil so it doesn’t stick to the grill. Cook each side for 3-4 min.
