There's something magical about the way vegetables transform on a hot grill—their natural sweetness intensifies as beautiful char marks develop, creating layers of flavor that simply can't be achieved any other way. As we "Spring Into Flavor" this season, I'm celebrating the arrival of Calicutts' new Golden Goddess blend, a sunshine-inspired spice mix that's truly awakening my kitchen after winter's heavy comfort foods. This vibrant medley of grilled vegetables showcases the blend's aromatic qualities, turning an everyday side dish into a showstopping centerpiece that's perfect for both weeknight dinners or those meaningful gathering moments with friends. The honey-balsamic drizzle adds just the right touch of sweetness, creating a dish that's as Instagram-worthy as it is delicious. Trust me, these Golden Goddess Grilled Vegetables will have everyone at your table reaching for seconds!
