The veggies and tofu absorb the marinade, and this makes a wonderful meal for our Meatless Mondays! Be sure to use VERY firm tofu so it doesn't crumble and fall off. If you have flat skewers, turning them will be much easier. TIME DOES NOT INCLUDE MARINATING TIME (minimum 3 hours)

How To Make mediterranean veggie kabobs

  • 1
    Combine all marinade ingredients in a large but shallow pan. Add the remaining ingredients and gently stir to combine. Marinate for at least 3 hours, stirring from time to time. You can marinate overnight, too.
  • 2
    Using 9 or 10 inch skewers, arrange the ingredients, alternating textures and colors.
  • 3
    Grill or broil the kabobs, basting frequently with the marinade. Turn every few minutes so nothing burns. Watch the kabobs carefully and remove from heat when the veggies are tender and lightly browned. Baste one more time before serving.
  • 4
    Serve over hot buttered rice or pasta.
