Grilled Romaine



Ever heard of grilling romaine hearts? I definitely hadn't until a few weeks ago when a friend of mine posted a picture of them.

Yum.

Taylor and I decided to try to make them last night. We've been trying really hard to get our "greens" in with each meal and love trying new recipes and ways to cook veggies.

We started by cutting of  some of the top and bottom of the hearts (just to get rid of some of the leafy top, and tough bottom). Next we sliced the hearts lengthwise (like the picture above). In a small bowl, we whisked  together some olive oil, fresh rosemary, and s&p, and then brushed the marinade over each heart.

The hearts went cut-side down on the grill for 2 minutes, and then we flipped them on the other side for two more minutes. We sprinkled on some parmesan cheese at the very end.

The grilled romaine hearts were surprisingly good! Some of the leaves were a little soggy around the edges but were still crisp in the middle. All in all, I think we'd make this again!
