Grilling Season is Now! {Recipe: Marinated Grilled Sweet Onions}

Marinated Grilled Sweet Onions are one of the easiest grilled side dishes you’ll find. Thanks to my friends at McCormick spices and seasonings for sponsoring this post. 

Marinated Grilled Sweet Onions from www.dineanddish.netI always get a chuckle when people say that Labor Day is the official end of grilling season. Anyone who believes that doesn’t know my husband. I’ve known him to be out manning our ghetto grill in 3 feet of snow. A little cooler weather isn’t going to stop us from enjoying some of our favorite grilled foods! McCormick Rub, Marinade and Steak SauceFor us, grilling season is simultaneous with football season. Who doesn’t love to slap a few steaks or brats on the grill to enjoy while watching the game? And with McCormick Grill Mates marinades, I really don’t have to do much prep work. Mix together the marinade, let the to be grilled food sit in the marinade for 30 minutes or so, put it on the grill to cook, and it’s good to go!

Marinated Grilled Onions by www.dineanddish.netOne of my favorite things to grill this time of year is vegetables. I love the flavor of fall root vegetables when cooked over the grill. And onions? Have you ever grilled whole sweet onions? It is one of the tastiest things, ever… melt in your mouth good. Just don’t make them on a date night…they aren’t exactly the best things to eat if you plan on breathing near anyone else 🙂

We have a preciously shared favorite baked onion recipe that we usually stick to, but recently, for something different we decided to marinate a few sweet onions in McCormick Smokin’ Sweet Tea Marinade and then cook them on the grill. Friends, this is one fantastic way to cook onions… whether you like them as a side dish or to top a juicy steak, these onions were amazing. Tender, flavorful and the ideal tailgating addition.

I hope you’ll keep your grill out for a couple more months, and if you do, I hope you’ll give these Marinated Grilled Sweet Onions a try! Enjoy!

    My family is the same. We grill al year round, even in the middle of the crazy Colorado snow storms. Yeah, it really does happen. 🙂

    Love the idea of grilled onions. They look great!

    My Hubby is such a big fan of grilling that we never pack the grill away for winter. These onions sound fabulous! I love the smell of grilling onions!

    When Paul and I lived in Minnesota, I would grill all year long. My neighbors thought I was crazy, watching me in my parka and snow boots, grillin’ away in sub-zero temperatures. Now in CA, I’m glad I can grill all year long without frostbite, but I feel you on this one. Also? Be still my ever-lovin onion heart.

    We grill year-round too because Houston only has two seasons, Summer and Fall. I have never thought of grilling a whole onion before but I can imagine it tastes wonderful. I will certainly have to try your recipe.

    Completely agree with. Since we got a gas grill, we have been grilling the time; good smoky food is good all year! Love this grilled onion idea. It reminds of those onion blossoms that you see at chain restaurants that have 1000 calories, this is definitely easier on the waistline (and better).

    Love,Love,Love grilled onions! We grill all winter too. We finally had to break down and buy a new umbrella, so no longer have the ghetto umbrella. I think you guys should get a new grill! 🙂

I is for Inspiration!
.
The “long haul” effects of having Covid back in December are really presenting themselves lately. The continuous persistent headaches are taking a toll and the connection between the brain fog and word retrieval function of my brain has been extra challenging. I had no idea a couple months out, the cognitive effects would still be hanging around.
.
With that said, when I get a burst of inspiration I’m grabbing on for dear life. I made our favorite chocolate chip cookies recipe yesterday and felt the desire to update the blog post photos from 2007! We make these cookies all the time, so I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many years to give that poor post some new photos.
.
If you’re interested in the recipe you can find the link currently in my profile. Enjoy!!

H is for...high!
.
It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.
.
I can’t wait until travel becomes a regular part of life again. I’ve missed it so much!

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!

E is for...Excitement!
.
There’s a lot of excitement in Kansas City as our beloved @chiefs head back to the Super Bowl this weekend! #runitback 🏈
.
It’s so strange because winning the super bowl last year was the last “normal” thing that happened before the pandemic hit. We went from a city full of excitement to shutting down and sheltering in place. Maybe when we win and bring the trophy home this year, it’ll be the start of something great. Let’s hope!

Who are you rooting for Sunday? Chiefs, Buccaneers or tacos? 😂

D is for... Dreary (and Dog)
February has always been my least favorite month. I have a special name for this month that may start with another not so nice F word...🤭.
.
In Kansas, the sun usually doesn't shine that often, it's cold, and just kind of gray and blah.
.
My indoor jungle makes me happy though...especially this space in my office. Houseplants almost makes me forget we’re in the “F” month 😂.
.
Also, my dog (my favorite d word) would not sit still for a picture when I had my tripod set up, but I finally caught her sitting on her bed and had to catch a picture with my phone. Swipe and you’ll see she is much overdue for a haircut.

C is for Coaching, Coffee and Crystals! Lots of C words today. My @rockyourhappy coaching practice has been the best thing. I am so lucky to be working with really great clients who are doing the hard work and making big changes in their lives. It’s been the perfect fit for me and I know it’s what I am meant to be doing. Coffee, of course, is my favorite C word and Crystals…my daughters got me into the energy powers of crystals and it’s been really fun to learn all about them.

B is for Books! Are you a big reader? I wasn’t really a reader growing up. Well, I take that back. In junior high I plowed through the Sweet Valley High series (anyone else?) 😊 And when I was in elementary school I would bust my butt to get to the highest level in the SRA Reading box before anyone else. But I wasn’t a kid who you’d find with their nose in a book, ever.
.

It wasn’t until I was an adult, and my kids began to sleep through the night, that I started reading for fun. Now, I read all the time and it’s one of my favorite pastimes. I love talking books with people and sharing recommendations. I really don’t watch TV, so books, especially right now, is my main form of entertainment.
.

This is why for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photography challenge, I knew that Books would be my B. It’s my favorite B word (beating out Bullet Journaling, Bread, Blankets, Be Happy, etc).
