From Elizabeth Woolley, your Guide to Type 2 Diabetes
Add some variety to your meals by firing up the grill! I am sending links to some easy and healthy grilling ideas and recipes from Stacey Hugues, dietitian and About.com Contributing Writer.

Grilled Vegetables
Vegetables help round out the meal with their low calorie, low carb, low fat and high fiber content. But if you're planning to grill outside, then it could seem cumbersome to have to go back inside to cook your vegetables. You may be tempted to skip them! Grill them!

Grilled Corn
Why dirty a pot with water if you're already firing up the grill? Grilled corn on the cob is quick and easy. This recipe can use your favorite herbs interchangeably. Use basil for an Italian twist or cilantro for southwestern style.

Grilled Zucchini
Grilled zucchini is a crowd pleaser. Some squash can be a little stringy or chewy, but zucchini has an easy crunch when cooked just right on the grill. As a gardener, I'm also always looking for ways to use zucchini because zucchini plants often produce a bounty!

Grilled Squash, Onions and Tomatoes
Grilled squash mixed with onion and tomatoes is a sweet and savory side-dish to serve up alongside grilled chicken, fish or beef. Yellow squash is used in this recipe, but zucchini can be used as well.
