Grilled caprese kebabs with Halloumi and garlic bread

Crispy vegetarian caprese kebabs with (off course) tomatoes, Halloumi cheese and basil. And as a secret ingredient combined with garlic bread. Then deliciously baked on the barbecue. Yummy!

Each recipe week includes at least one vegetarian recipe, just for a change and because I am not a very big meat eater myself. I can also enjoy cheese or an egg dish. And this recipe is a wonderful change and a great addition to my BBQ recipes.

Halloumi

cheese

Halloumi is a goat cheese that appears to have a somewhat rubbery structure (nowadays it is made by mixing goat milk, sheep milk and cow milk). This makes it very suitable for grilling, because it does not drip. But you can certainly eat it fresh or as a topping in the soup.

And because of this features this makes Halloumi cheese very suitable for this barbecue recipe. (why off course we used it)

 

It's a good taste!
