These Sausage Kebabs with Grilled Veggies are a delicious and healthier option for your next grill out. Paired with quinoa, it is the perfect easy meal.
When I was growing up, my mom did all the cooking.
That was a good thing.
I have very vivid memories of my Dad trying to make things when my mom was out, and let’s just say it wasn’t a good thing. (Sorry Dad, but I am still traumatized by that cold cinnamon toast you made me.)
The one exception was grilling. My Dad always stepped in when it was time to grill.
I suppose this mostly had to do with tradition. To be honest, I never really gave it much thought beyond the idea that grilling was a “man thing.”
In the eighteen years hubby and I have been together, I’ve always let him handle the grill. (Even when it meant flames that were so high I sat there with my phone in hand prepared to call the fire department.)
This summer, I’m stepping up and getting in on the grilling myself. I’m hoping to become a legend at my grill.

You had me at kabob. I love grilled veggies and meat. My dad taught us girls how to cut grass, use tools, drive stick, and fire up the grill. Man did I complain like a brat but I am glad I have those skills now!

This looks delicious! I like that the sausage uses Wisconsin cheese. I bet that gives it some wonderful flavor.

Cold cinnamon toast sounds ghastly! Those kabobs, however, look delicious and I love the touch of quinoa.
