25 Jun Rainbow Vegetable Skewers
One of my favorite websites to go on is Pinterest! I love looking at different recipe ideas with ingredients I have on hand and also being inspired by other food bloggers to try out new and exciting recipes I would not have thought of myself. Today I share with you a recipe I found in just that way! I was browsing through my feed on Pinterest, and someone had pinned a Rainbow Vegetable Skewers recipe from Gimme Some Oven that I just had to try out! The photo alone was breathtaking, with the color scheme being absolutely beautiful. So I pinned her recipe, and finally got around to trying it out. As always, feel free to substitute the vegetables as you wish, and cook it in a manner of your liking. Just be sure to cut all of he vegetables to about the same size to ensure even cooking. The original recipe grilled the skewers, but I decided to roast them in my oven as I was a bit lazy to set up our outdoor grill. I omitted both salt and oil from the original recipe as well, but feel free to use them if you’d like.
