Grilling is a form of cooking that involves dry heat applied to the surface of food from above or below. Grilling is usually done outdoor on charcoal grills or gas grills. Grilling may also be performed using stove top grill pans which have raised metal ridges for the food to sit on. Grilling is fun during summers, specially in places like parks and beaches. Most of the parks have grilling machines already placed, you might need to carry gas cylinder or charcoal, grilling kit and some marinaded vegetables or meat or fish. It is so much fun......
Coming to today's recipe this week I will be posting 3 "Vegetarian grilling" recipes which is my theme for this week. Today we are starting with 76th Edition of Blogging Marathon. So my recipe for week 1, Day 1 is Grilled Vegetable Fajitas.
Last month kids had Spring break and hubby dear too took off from work. We visited couple of places during the break, where we had Chicken Fajitas for lunch. They were served with couple of tortillas, grilled sizzling chicken along with veggies and some mashed Avocado, salsa, cream, black beans and cheese. They were so delicious. So today's recipe is Yummy Fajitas but with grilled veggies instead of Chicken.
