Menu and Recipes for a Vegetarian Barbecue

To my knowledge, barbecues are not commonly done at households in India. But in North America it's a popular activity performed at home during the summer. Since Mom and Dad are visiting me this summer and since they are vegetarian, I decided to hold a vegetarian barbecue this Mother's day.
I used to think that barbecues were only meant for meat. But when I started exploring vegetarian options for the grill, I realized that there were so many things that could be on the menu.
Happy Mother's Day from our family to yours!

1. Barbequed corn (desi style bhutta) smeared with Chaat masala and lemon juice
2. Vegetarian patties/burger with fresh tomato, lettuce, onion rings, and mayonnaise.
3. Paneer tikka
4. Ceaser or Tossed salad
5. Oven roasted potatoes
6. Fresh Cut Fruits
7. Home made fruit juice

Any other vegetarian barbecue ideas?

Ceaser Salad

I am so glad I am back on track with healthy eating and healthy living. I signed up for yoga classes and went to the gym today. Such a great feeling!

I have been trying to post about salads but was not able to for many personal reasons. It is about time this post makes its way to you.

This recipe is a standard recipe. I use store bought ingredients for convenience. It's an easy to make, in a jiffy, cold side that are great contributions for picnics, barbecues, or a quick lunch.

1. Romaine lettuce, washed and broken into bite size pieces
2. Garlic Croutons
3. Parmesan cheese
4. Dressing (I used Kraft Ceaser)

Instructions:
1. Throw everything together.

You can also add pieces of baked chicken for a plus to the protein factor.
