    Hmm well this article isnt too helpful since I dont eat any meat, I am a vegetarian and would never eat these unhealthy foods. Maybe next time if they start off with "Grilling season doesn't have to mean fatty steaks, burgers and fat jeans" they shouldnt show foods that contain animals.

    its so funny everyone thinks that all they have to do,is eat low cal food &poof your skinny. isnt any food thats more bad for ya than another just eat in moderation. key thing is not any diet will work on a constant basis if you dont exercise on a constant basis.people are so lazy that they always dont want to work for what they really want!!!!!!!!!!

    Vegetarian grilling now thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I mean really , why bother? If God had not intended for us to eat animals he wouldnt have made them out of meat. :-)

    Well, I'm just now finishing up last nights leftovers. Warm shrimp salad. Shrimp served on top of a concoction with black beans spiced with cumin. Yum. Then I shall try all the above recipes. Happy cooking!

    vegetarians !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! meat unhealthy? what did your parents do ? throw hamburgs & chops on the sidewalk &wait for the sun to heat them up? organically raised meat is very good for you,deer ,elk, bear,wild boar, fresh fish, all VERY good for you!! any food that is regulated by big brother has more germs, bacteria & what not THATS the meat not to eat!

    What do all you people who are against meat do for protein? Seriously, eating meat is not a sin. And if one does his\her grilling with some common sense you can serve up a tastey and healthy MEAT dish without any guilt trips. Moderation is the key, as someone else has already suggested. My preference is grilled chicken, but I am especially fond of bison or elk...very lean, no fat, lots of protein and grills in 1\3 the time beef takes. Exceptional flavor as well.

    Do you have any recipes that only include meat? I do not eat vegetables. I would like to see a meat grilled with meat. Also, are there any delicious meat based grilled desserts?

    What are the vegetarians talking about? #5 doesn't have any meat. Don't comment if you haven't read it.

    I found only one major flaw in this whole list of 10 recipes... The chef screwed up on #5, somebody forgot the meat/protein... "I didn't claw my way to the top of the evolutionary food chain to eat rabbit food..."

    ok... vegan go to a different website then . Its your choice to eat that way and eating meat has nothing to do with your weight. Just cause you make the choice not to eat animals doesnt mean its wrong to do so.

    There's not a single meatless option here, which is disappointing. But I didn't know that Feta could be grilled, so that was an interesting bit of info!

    Ooops! I guess I should have read the recipe before commenting...Feta cannot be grilled. So, like I said before, not a single meatless option on the list - disappointing.
