GRILLED PEPPERS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare a medium-high (400 F to 475 F) gas or charcoal grill fire. You should be able to hold your hand about an inch above the cooking grate for 3 to 4 seconds before pulling it away from the heat.
• While the grill heats, halve or quarter and core the peppers. Smaller peppers can be grilled whole.
• Brush the skin side of each piece of pepper with olive oil.
• Place the peppers on the grill, skin-side down. Cover the grill and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. The skin should blacken a fair amount; this is fine.
• Remove the blackened grilled skin; it should slip right off. Or, keep things simple and let diners do it themselves as they eat the peppers.
• Sprinkle the peppers with salt to taste and serve them hot, warm, or at room temperature. Enjoy.

GRILLED DAY BOAT SCALLOPS OVER ELDERBERRY WOOD WITH PEAS AND APPLES IN GRILLED RED PEPPER SAUCE

GRILLED BACON, EGG AND CHEESE ZUCCHINI BOATS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat: For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off the middle burner for 3-burner grills or the 2 middle burners for grills with 4 or more burners and keep the other 2 burners at medium high. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (The grill should be around 400 degrees F. Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for the best results.)
• Slice the zucchinis down the middle, lengthwise like a hotdog, so that you have 4 long, equal pieces of zucchini. Use a teaspoon to remove the flesh of the zucchini, being sure to leave a 1/4-inch border and to not pierce the bottom of the zucchini. Finely chop 1/2 cup of the zucchini flesh and discard or save the remainder for another use. Place the chopped zucchini flesh into a clean kitchen towel and wring out as much liquid as possible. Place the zucchini flesh into a medium liquid measuring cup or bowl.
• Flip the zucchini boats over so that the peel side is facing up and brush all four pieces with olive oil. Season the peel side with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, then flip over and season the flesh side with another 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Add the Cheddar, Havarti, chives, cream, eggs, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the liquid measuring cup or bowl with the zucchini flesh. Whisk until well combined. Pour the mixture into the cavity of each zucchini boat.
• Using both hands to lift the zucchini carefully, place the filled boat in the middle of the grill over indirect heat (where the burner is turned off), cover, and cook until the eggs have puffed up slightly and are just set, 25 to 30 minutes. Use grilling tongs to remove the zucchini to a cutting board. Carefully wrap each zucchini boat in 1 of the bacon strips. Return to the grill over indirect heat and continue grilling, covered, until the eggs are completely set and the bacon is warmed and just crispy, 18 to 20 minutes.

GRILLED LEMON PEPPER VEGGIES

GRILLED PEPPERS WITH CHEESE

Steps:

• Put bell peppers, cut side down, on a greased baking sheet. Grill in a preheated oven of 400 F for about 20 minutes or until they are tender.
• Flip the bell peppers, distribute the cubes of bread in the holes and cover with half the basil. Sprinkle with garlic and cheese. Keep cooking for about 15 minutes or until peppers are lightly black on the sides and cheese is bubbling. Sprinkle with remaining basil.

GRILLED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Take several bell peppers, cleaned of the stems and seeds. Cut into strips lengthwise. These can be four to six depending on the size of the peppers and your preference.
• Season LIGHTLY with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Brush both sides of the strips with good olive oil.
• Place skin side down on hot grill, until skin blisters and peppers soften (3-8 minutes depending on grill). You can let the skin brown a bit if desired.
• Turn peppers and grill until inner side is done (about half the time of the skin side -- 2-4 minutes).
• Try this with different color peppers. Maybe add a few green onions.
• Try this with Anaheim peppers -- Very good!
• Try adding sliced zucchini, too.
