| The traditional hamburgers and hot dogs are not very appealing. Anyone have suggestions for healthier (and tastier) things for grilling? |

| We love to grill out as well, and no hot dogs are not very tasty! Try some grilled chicken breasts! Not really sure what else! |

| You could always use ground turkey or chicken for your hamburgers and turkey brats for the hot dogs. Or you could simply grill chicken with a little bbq sauce or with a little bit of olive oil and grill seasoning. But my favorite is grilled salmon, I just love salmon. And of course you can grill veggies too!! hope this helps! |

*Grill Tofu & Vegetables. (My marinade consists of : sesame oil, balsamic vinegar, grated garlic & ginger, dried or fresh rosemary, basil, thyme, & oregano, pepper, soy sauce, lemon, olive oil) Let sit overnight preferably in a Tupperware container-if not, two hours will suffice. "Tofu"-use Firm or X-tra Firm. Grill. My entire family, yes the kids-14year old and 4 love this.
*Chicken-breasts, legs, thighs, with veg and brown rice.
*Shrimp Kabob: Raw shrimp, with Mushrooms. Use marinade similiar to the one I have mentioned on the shrimp.
*Turkey Burgers: for a twist, I add crunched up "Blue Corn Chips" to the turkey, it blends a good flavor.
*Fish-Catfish, Salmon.
*As for hot dogs, we only use "Hebrew Nationals"
*As for Hamburgers-I spice mine up by adding "Chipotle, cheese, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, bread crumbs-just add to the meat and it won't be so boring.
I grill just about everything you can cook. |

| Man those are some great ideas. I also like to grill fruit for dessert. Sometimes I put sugar on it and it makes a nice carmelazation. I like pineapple, strawberries,mango, and other tropical fruit on my kabob. Happy grilling! |

I haven't made them in a while, but I used to make these yummy chicken kabobs:
On a kabob, put raw chicken cubes, pineapple, onion, mushrooms, and green and red peppers. Let marinate in soy sauce and lemon juice for a couple of hours. Grill and enjoy! |
