These Greek inspired veggie kebabs with feta cheese are my new favorite side dish anytime we grill outside. I can prepare them ahead of time and enjoy time with the family while my husband grills the meat. He adds these when the meat is about done and a few minutes later we are ready to eat.

  • 7oz feta cheese
  • 1/4 Red Pepper
  • 1/4 Yellow Pepper
  • 1 Zucchini
  • 1/4 Eggplant
  • Wooden cocktail sticks

Marinade

  • 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp raspberry vinegar
  • 1 tsp peppercorns crushed (preferably pink peppercorns)
  • 1 tsp clear honey
  • 1/2 tsp Dijon Mustard
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground

Marinade:
Combine olive oil, vinegar, peppercorns, honey, mustard, thyme, salt and pepper into a large bowl and thoroughly blend the ingredients.

Cut the feta cheese and the vegetables (red pepper, yellow pepper, zucchini and aubergine) into bite-sized pieces and add to the marinade. Coat evenly and cover with plastic wrap. Leave to marinate in a cool place for an hour or more.

Wet the wooden cocktail sticks, and thread one piece of each vegetable and feta cheese onto the sticks. Put on the grill for about 2 – 3 minutes and enjoy with a delicious beef burger or steak.

This makes about 24 veggie kebabs.
