BBQ Mushrooms
This is a quick but delicious recipe for vegetarians (be sure to place it on foil to keep away from meat juices). For each person wash, and peel if necessary 2 large flat cap mushrooms. Place upside down on foil and put on enough pesto to cover gills. Cook until mushroom is soft. Can add various veggie cheeses before cooking if want extra protein but not necessary.
 

Mushroom with Roule
1 large open mushroom, Fill it with olive oil, soya sauce and roule cheese, wrap in tin foil and cook.


Stuffed Peppers
This is pretty simple, just pre boil some rice (my personal preference is that steam in the bag rice), cut the tops off of your peppers (the bigger the better), place the rice into a bowl, add cooked bacon bits (optional), grated emantal and cheddar cheese. Season to taste, stuff the peppers with the mixture and replace the lid of the pepper back on to hold in the flavor. Wrap in tin foil and place on the back of the BBQ, turning once in a while.

Once everything else is cooked the peppers will be very soft and melt in the mouth. This also works in the oven for a convenient side dish.
 

BBQ Mushrooms with Cheese
Wash some large flat mushrooms, then get some stilton cheese and place slices of cheese all around the mushroom (not to thick about a 1cm will be fine). Sprinkle some Worcester sauce over the whole mushroom with some pepper.

Then place on BBQ and gentle cook until the cheese melts into the mushroom and the mushroom is cooked, and enjoy.

Tip: test if mushroom is cooked stick a knife in the stalk it should go in and come out easily.
