Nutrition on a Skewer

Fire up the grill for a kebab party. Make your own marinade from olive oil, red wine vinegar, crushed garlic, and herbs such as thyme, basil, or cilantro. Marinate meats the day before; vegetables, shrimp and scallops can wait until hours before grilling. For something unique, try fruits like apples, cherries, pineapple, kiwi, or peaches, and add bell peppers, onion, potatoes, grape tomatoes, eggplant, mushrooms, squash, and zucchini on the skewer too.
