Summertime is a fine time for picnics and cookouts, and nothing says “picnics” or “cookouts” more to me than grilling. We love grilling outdoors year round, but in the summer it’s great to cook a whole meal outside on the grill while keeping the inside of the house cool, and maybe throwing a frisbee or two in between manning the grill.

Since summer is prime time for grilling, I decided to toss the Spicy Mustard Dressing with a medley of grilled vegetables. It’s the perfect flavor combo: a bit of spice, a hint of honey, with a splash of lime to make otherwise bland vegetables sing! Not only is it a tasty side dish, but it’s a light and healthy option to serve alongside any of your favorite grilled entrees. Serve these Grilled Vegetables with Spicy Mustard Dressing at your next picnic or cookout and see how many come back for seconds!
