"My husband and I were thrilled to receive a gas grill as a wedding gift from some church friends," relates Sundra Hauck of Bogalusa, Louisiana. "We love to grill these hearty meatball-and-veggie kabobs. Barbecue sauce gives them a slightly sweet flavor."

Meal on a Stick Recipe

Prep: 25 min. Grill: 10 min.

Yield: 8 Servings

25 10 35

Ingredients

8 small red potatoes
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1-1/4 cups seasoned bread crumbs
1 teaspoon curry powder
1-1/2 pounds ground beef
24 pimiento-stuffed olives
8 plum tomatoes, halved
2 medium green peppers, cut into quarters
8 large fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup barbecue sauce

Directions

Scrub and pierce potatoes; place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3-5 minutes or until slightly tender.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the eggs, Worcestershire sauce, bread crumbs and curry powder. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Divide into 24 portions; shape each portion around an olive.
On eight metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread meatballs and vegetables. Grill kabobs, covered, over medium-hot heat for 5 minutes on each side, brushing occasionally with barbecue sauce, until meatballs are no longer pink, turning once. Yield: 8 servings.

Potatos need to cook longer in the microwave to allow the meat and vegetables to be done at the same time.

Yum! Only problem-some of the meatballs fell off. I used at least 1/2 cup barbecue sauce and cherry tomatoes. Next time I'll use more veggies, maybe add some onions, less meat, the peppers were delicious!

I would make this again but I think I would add onion .
