This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Amanda Sakovitz. Congrats!!

This is part of a compensated campaign with Hellmann’s.

If you’ve been following my grilling adventures, then you know that cooking in this way was quite intimidating.  Having picked up a few tips last month, I ventured outside over the weekend to grill a few relatively simple dishes.  Vegetables are probably one of the easiest foods to grill because apart from burning them, they can’t really be messed up.  While my fish was cooking on the grill, I brushed a bit of herb marinade over the vegetables and placed them on the grill. The combination of the marinade and the natural aroma of the grill made for  soft, flavorful vegetables with all of their moisture retained.

Grilled Fish and Vegetables

My children are actually pretty good about eating vegetables and trying new foods, but it helps if they can dip them in a sauce.  I absolutely love aioli, a sauce with origins in the South of France (Provence). This simple compliment to fish and vegetables traditionally includes  garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and egg yolks. Interestingly enough, many of the ingredients resemble those found in Hellmann’s Mayonnaise, so I thought I’d use it to create my own Garlic Aioli!

This homemade Garlic Aioli was the perfect compliment to our grilled artichoke and was super easy to prepare.

  252. Mmmm that chicken salad looked so good. I think I’d like to see him revamp a tuna casserole of some kind. I love tons of mayo in my tuna fish, and I remember my mom always making a rice dish with mayo and tuna and peas. Cheap but delicious!

  357. I’d like to see the 1-2-3 Savory Potato Salad revamped – thank you.
