@bbqpitmaster On that note, here's my veg souvlaki recipe (which we had for dinner just last night); serves 2–4, depending on how many vegetables you cut up).
Marinade:
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp hot pepper flakes
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Cut up big pieces of any vegetables you want (I use red onion, cremini mushroom caps, red pepper, and zucchini) and put them in a bowl.
Stir all the marinade ingredients together well in a measuring cup, then pour over the vegetables and toss like a salad until everything is well coated.
Let sit for a little while (maybe 30 min, but longer would be OK), then put on thin skewers, alternating vegetables.
Grill, BBQ, roast, or broil until the edges of the peppers start to blacken.
Serve on pita, optionally with good tsatsiki.
For a lacto-ovo version, add big chunks of halloumi to the skewers before cooking. Lemon-garlic potatoes and/or a greek salad make good sides.
Bon appetit!

I do something similar. In a half size aluminum pan.
Cube a couple potatoes, zucchini, yellow squash, onion, jalapeño peppers, garlic, whatever you like also. Salt, pepper, salad supreme to your liking. Slice up a stick up butter and place in different areas of your veggies. I put it in my smoker or grill, cook maybe 15 minutes to melt the butter, toss the veggies to mix and continue cooking. Monitor and mix until all is tender… enjoy.
