Celebrate spring with these veggies on the grill

veggies on the grill

September welcomes the start of the spring season – as well as family get-togethers and braais under the sun. But a braai day doesn’t have to mean meat and potato salad! These five recipes for veggies on the grill allow you to get your daily dose of nutrients and have space for dessert. And what makes it even better is that with McCain’s range of frozen vegetables, you don’t have to toil away in the kitchen when the sun is shining outside!

1. Grilled vegetables and coriander pesto

Nothing says spring more than a wholesome, nutrient-filled dish of grilled veggies paired with refreshing and easy-to-make coriander pesto. Whip up this dish in no time by using the already prepped McCain Butternut & Sweet Potato Vegetable Mix.

2. Tandoori BBQ cauliflower wings

Cauliflower is a vegetable that truly offers flexibility – just think of cauli-rice and pizza bases – but these tandoori BBQ cauliflower wings are the ultimate braai accompaniment. Packed with a spicy bite and a tangy sauce, this recipe is easy to throw together thanks to McCain Cauliflower Florets.

3. Chunky roasted veggies with beans

This vibrant and truly spring-themed recipe is packed with flavour. Use McCain Diced Beetroot to add a splash of colour and to speed up the cooking preparation time.

4. Roast vegetable kebabs

As an easy pairing with any braai meat or for a plant-based braai option, this roast vegetable kebabs recipe is effortless. Simply use the McCain Sweet Potato Chunks, McCain Pumpkin Chunks and McCain Diced Beetroot alongside a range of other vegetables to prepare this simple yet delicious dish.

5. Braaied butternut (or pumpkin) and miso parcels

Paired with miso paste to create a depth of flavour, this recipe is a fan favourite. Don’t have butternut? Mix things up and use McCain Pumpkin Chunks instead.
