As I write about Mushroom Skewers in Lemony Italian Dressing, I am sitting by the pool at Hampton Inn, watching my 2 munchkins having a ball of a time.

Don’t you love the innocence of the childhood and those formative years, where there is no worry besides what to eat next and have a good time, no matter what? I seriously wish that I could live that time, even if for few hours.

But hey, I am not complaining, especially when I can treat myself on these delicious Mushroom Skewers in Lemony Italian Dressing, in matter of no time. It is the easiest thing that you can put on your dinner table in under 30 minutes, given if you have marinated the vegetables ahead of time. The marination again doesn’t take more than 5 minutes. Yes, it is that easy.

Have I mentioned before that I am a hard core mushroom-vore (if that is a term)? I can eat mushrooms in any form and in any and every cuisine. The chewy texture is so comforting to me. The ease with which the mushrooms absorb flavors is amazing. It is a Vegan’s dream substitute for meat or protein. If you are not a mushroom lover, use paneer or tofu instead.

  • Marinade for 2-3 hrs.
  • Take 4-5 bamboo skewers. Wet them in water. Start skewering the Vegetables on the bamboo skewers in a pattern - mushroom, bell pepper, onion, bell pepper, mushroom and so on. You can make it a long skewer or a short skewer, depending upon how big is your grill.
  • Grill on electric grill or flat griddle / tawa or on the backyard grill. Keep rotating the skewers for even grilling. Grill till you see slight charred marks on the vegetables. Since these are vegetables, it does not take long to grill the skewers.

I enjoyed my meal with some grilled pita and drizzled the skewers with some tangy ranch. I am telling you that it was such a refreshing light summer meal that I can indulge in, anytime. And if skewers sound tough for you, call them kebabs ;).
