Healthy recipe: Grilled pumpkins and romaine lettuce topped with white cheese and walnuts
Don’t feel like eating vegetarian? Add a piece of delicious fish on the grill!
The pumpkin – important to start with as this takes the longest to cook. If you have a grill mat or closed grill plate, you can cut the pumpkin into small cubes – if you do not have both and you want to grill the pumpkin on the normal grill rack, we recommend cutting the pumpkin into thin slices instead of cubes.
Ingredients:
1 small Hokkaido pumpkin
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 tsp Ras el hanout spices
Salt & pepper to taste
Preparation:
- Wash the pumpkin well and cut it into small pieces or thin slices
- Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle the Ras el hanout herbs on top. Add salt and pepper to taste
- Turn on your nomadiQ BBQ on one side and grill the pumpkin on a medium-high setting until it is soft and has nice grill marks. In the meantime, prepare the romaine lettuce:
ROMAINE LETTUCE
Ingredients:
2 small heads of romaine lettuce
100 grams of white cheese
50 grams of walnuts
4 tbsp honey mustard dressing from balsamic syrup
1 tbsp olive oil
Preparation:
- Halve the romaine lettuce heads lengthwise and drizzle with olive oil
- Turn on the other side of the nomadiQ and grill the lettuce for about 5-7 minutes until you see grill marks and place them on a plate.
- Chop the walnuts and crumble them and the white cheese over the lettuce
- Finally, drizzle some dressing over it and serve the lettuce
What is delicious here is a grilled fish, such as cod, trout or another white fish. Sprinkle with some fish seasoning/salt, pepper & lemon and voila! If you want to save this vegetarian dish, you can make a little more of the pumpkin and lettuce. Enjoy it!
