This Grilled Cowboy Caviar recipe is a flavorful, healthy appetizer that can also be served as a salad side dish. Grilled veggies are a fabulous addition!

Grilled Corn Cowboy Caviar

Grilled Cowboy Caviar is an even better choice than salsa for an appetizer or snack because it is so filling. We like eating it with tortilla chips but it can also be served as a salad. I’ve shared recipes for cowboy caviar in the past but decided to try grilling the vegetables before adding them to the salad the last time I made it and I love how it turned out! Grilling the vegetables gives them a flavor boost and they are a great addition to cowboy caviar.

Grilled Veggies

Cut bell peppers, tomatoes, and onions into slices. Arrange them in a grilling basket, brush with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Grilled Corn

Brush ears of corn with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place directly on the grill grate.

 Grill the vegetables over medium high heat, turning occasionally until grill marks appear, about 8 minutes or 4 minutes per side.
