These flavorful grilled veggies are loaded with so much healthy summer veggie goodness and plenty of sausage to satisfy both meat-lovers and veggie-lovers!
It’s a veggie Thursday. Keepin’ with the theme from Tuesday, yo!
In other news, my garden is in full production mode, so please bear with me while I use all the veggies in all the things.
August is gonna rock. You knoow it. Woot!!
It’s gonna rock in THIS direction —>

The grilled veggie direction. Walk this way please….
So let me tell you: My mom pretty much freaked when she wandered into the kitchen the other day and saw me cutting up more or less about 10 different kinds of veggies. ALL from the garden I might add. (!!!)
She’s a veggie-fiend and it’s no wonder I’m her daughter.

I was like, just waiiiit for it, Mom. It’s gonna rock.
And it did. My mom ate solely these veggies for dinner that night. And I felt like the awesome daughter I truly am. Haaa..

So guys, this summer I have stumbled upon a huge revelation. The grill is NOT just for meat. Seriously I think I’ve thrown more veggies, fruit, and cornbread on the grill thus far this summer than all the meat combined.
P.S. Cornbread on the grill? Just DO it!
But first: Veggies. The Thursday of the Veggies, remember?

All the summer veggies you can imagine. With lots of perfect little sausage slices nestled in there. Marinated in a sweet ‘n’ tangy marinade for hooooours for the BIG flavors. Thrown onto the hot grill and cooked to tender, slightly-charred and slightly-ridiculous perfection. ♥
Hello summer paradise. You’re looking pretty dang gorgeous.

The way I see it, these veggies are just a win-win all around on every-level kinda dinner deal. Shall we put all the pros in bullet points? Yes, we should.
- They’re grilled. HELLO, it is unbearably hot and humid here and I have officially put my oven in a timeout ’til further notice.
- They use up all that summer produce that I sincerely hope we ALL have coming outta our ears by now.
- There’s a lot of healthy veggies BUT there’s also sausage thrown into the mix, for those meat-lovers we all have to put up with. (for a totally vegetarian version, feel free to just leave the sausage out!)
- Lastly. The colors. Really, how could you NOT want to eat something this color-loaded??
Actually I prefer faceplanting better to be completely honest….
Join me? We’ll save those margaritas for tomorrow and “veg” out today. 😀

Do you serve this alone? What would you pair it with? Thanks!

Joelle Steffen says
I’ve made this summer veggie and sausage recipe at least 10 times this summer. My mom and I cannot get enough! Thanks for the recipe. It’s a new family favorite.
Jennifer Tatko says
Can you substitute the sausage?
Sarah says
Yes, absolutely! You can just add additional veggies or leave it out entirely.
Meghan says
How would you adapt this for an oven?
Sarah says
Hi! I would recommend marinating the veggie and sausage per recipe instructions. Once marinated, lay veggies and sausage in a single layer on a large greased baking sheet and roast at 400F 15-20 minutes until vegetables are tender. Good luck!
