Monday, May 31: Eat a Grilled Vegetable

It's Memorial Day: Do you know where your vegetables are? Hopefully they're on a grill somewhere, on their way to char-grilled perfection. Today's challenge: Eat a grilled veggie.


Give the oven and the microwave a rest today. Sure, you can eat your veggies boiled, raw, or steamed, but few vegetables are as delicious -- and as fun! -- as those prepared over an outdoor grill. Top your burger with grilled peppers and zucchini, string up a vegetable kebab, or enjoy an ear of corn on the cob. Make it a goal to eat at least one serving of grilled vegetables today: Check out our database of grilling menus for recipe ideas and serving suggestions.

Tomorrow's challenge: Salute the sun. Stop back tomorrow to pledge!
