Who says non-meat eaters can’t have any fun with a grill? The culture of barbecue may be obsessively meat-centric, but I’ve known many a vegetarian who can perform magic with hot coals, some sauce and a squash.
I’ve thrown together plenty of vegetable marinades in my day, here are a few of my favorites. The chemistry is simple–mix the marinade up and let your vegetables marinate in a shallow dish from between 30 minutes to an hour before grilling.
