Barbecue Vegetable Skewers Recipe

Vegetable skewers are a fun, healthy side dish to spice up your next barbecue. The average barbecue is dominated by meat, meat, and more meat, but you can easily counterbalance that with some vegetable skewers. They are easy to prepare, easier to cook, and less likely to give you heartburn. Even meat-lovers will think these are tasty after you slather on the marinade.
