Did a simple and quick meal of Halloumi cheese and veggie skewers last night. For those who don’t know, Halloumi cheese is a high melting point cheese that can be grilled, fried, griddled etc etc. It’s very good heated, I would describe it as a more intense, flavorful and saltier version of mozzarella.
Decided to skewer some last night. Mushrooms, red onions, bell peppers were marinated in roasted red pepper Italian dressing (store bought because I don’t want to use up that much vinegar and EVOO). Skewered with halloumi and marinated artichokes as well.
Grilled turning often
Close up, cheese retains its shape.
These were a good and thoughtless meal. It’s all the wife and I had and we were stuffed. The Halloumi is wonderful grilled although it can be pricey at $10 for a block, still cheaper than beef here! I’ve also made a nice grilled Caprese salad using it instead of mozzarella. It’s a nice treat here and there but we can’t eat cheese all the time.
