Served’s Top 5 BBQ Vegetarian / Vegan BBQ dishes:

1. BLACK BEAN BURGERS

Let’s be honest, how many times have we ordered a veggie burger and it’s falling to bits and exploding out of the bun? Often! This food author says, “it holds together really well, and no longer will your veggie burgers be the laughing stock of the barbecue.”

3. JAMAICAN JERK GRILLED AUBERGINE

This super-food veggie should always star in your vegetarian BBQ set. Aubergine (aka eggplant) is a low-calorie and antioxidant-rich vegetable that is packed with flavour. Source your veggies from a local farmer and make sure this dish is on the menu.

4. GRILLED HALLOUMI SKEWERS

Halloumi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloumi) cheese originates from our neighbour Cyprus and is usually made from goat’s or sheep’s milk. Although this cheese is a slight splurge it is worth the treat every now and then.

No BBQ is complete without a potato salad, especially for us Maltese potato-lovers. This recipe is mayo-free and oil-free, an animal-friendly classic side dish.
