9 Veggie BBQ Recipes Even Carnivores Will Love
by Genevieve Fish
We may have been wearing sandals and sipping rosé at sunset since Memorial Day, but the summer is now officially in full swing and we're planning our July 4th cookouts. There’s only one problem. With so many friends and family members hopping on the veggie bandwagon or just shying away from meat, the traditional menu of burgers and hot dogs is not going to cut it this summer. No worries! We’ve rounded up a delicious selection of meat-free grilling recipes that will satisfy even the most die-hard beef-lovers.
Chipotle Pulled Mushroom Sandwich
Our mouths started watering at the very sight of this veggie take on the classic pulled pork sandwich, and our taste buds were not disappointed! Bring on the sticky fingers and chipotle-dripping chin. This one’s a keeper. And take a look at that pretzel roll—suns out, buns out! Click here for the recipe.
Garlic Butter Artichokes
These delicious artichokes prove that messy foods are sometimes the best. We love this smoky version, but the recipe is so easy you can make it in any kitchen. The melted garlic parmesan sprinkled on top makes us regret ever using standard mayo as a dipping option. Click here for the recipe.
Grilled Balsamic Fig Toast
We think this balsamic fig toast gives the trendy avocado version a run for its money. The juxtaposing combo of sweet and tart flavors with the crunchy and smooth texture will take you on a roller coaster of flavor delight. Click here for the recipe.

Grilled Peaches With Balsamic
Peaches, especially late-summer peaches, are one of our favorite summer fruits. This decadent yet healthy dessert is the perfect complement to an alfresco meal and won’t leave your guests feeling too full to function. Click here for the recipe.
Grilled Veggie Pizza
Is this Paleo version as good as the real deal? To be confirmed. But does it provide a burst of flavor without the comedown of processed ingredients? Absolutely! Add your favorite veggies and enjoy nature’s bounty. We recommend picking up some eggplant, kale, and summer squash this month, as they are especially delicious in June. Click here for the recipe.
Perfectly Grilled Corn on the Cob
Keep the husks on when you grill, and it’s like opening a present when they’re ready to eat. Not to mention the corn is so much juicier and sweeter! Click here for the recipe.

Ever since we got our hands on chef Yotam Ottolenghi’s cookbookPlenty we’ve been on the lookout for Mediterranean-inspired dishes. Martha Stewart’s grilled eggplant with homemade tzatziki is one of our faves. Click here for the recipe.
Grilled Asparagus With Balsamic Honey-Dijon Vinaigrette
The creamy balsamic honey-dijon drizzle is everything. If you’re not a strict veggies-only gal, pair these grilled asparagus with seared salmon. Otherwise chop them up and add to a pizza or pasta dish, or enjoy them on their own! Click here for the recipe.
Spicy, Charred Broccoli Rabe Pasta
Delicious spaghetti with perfectly charred broccoli rabe, crunchy garlic breadcrumbs, and drizzled olive oil and lemon… Um, yes, please! You can throw in any other vegetables that you have in your fridge, so this is the ideal end-of-the-week supper! Click here for the recipe.
