Ever since I got my new grill, I’ve been on an outdoor-cooking spree!
Skewers are one of my favorite things to grill. They can be customized in many different ways and they’re great for gatherings. These veggie skewers contain a rainbow of nutrient-dense goodness. The finishing touch is a glaze made with agave and balsamic vinegar. These skewers are so good even my 5-year-old will eat them!

For the Agave Balsamic Glaze:
- 3/4 cup agave
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

- 1 teaspoon powdered onion
- Salt and pepper to taste
Turn the grill to medium-high heat. Sprinkle on salt and pepper on the skewers. Place 3 pieces of each veggie on the skewers.
Spray with cooking oil and cook for 5 minutes. Flip over and cook an additional 5 minutes on the other side.

A few tips for grilling perfect veggie skewers:
Spray the skewers with oil before placing on the grill so they won’t stick.
Make sure the veggies are a similar thickness so they cook evenly.
Finally, use tongs to remove from the grill. The sticks get very hot!
Happy grilling!
