For a change, you can try cooking vegetables on the grill. When the meat is ready, place it on a rack or put it on the skewers a little sprinkled with olive oil, paprika, carrots, onions, mushrooms, zucchini, eggplant or asparagus.

Some vegetables have a bitter taste after heat treatment. Not all people feel it, but there are people to whom such vegetables can seem very bitter. It usually happens with white cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and also with lettuce. Therefore, they should not be heated for a long time; the more they warm up, the more bitter they become. Also, the fewer vegetables you heat, the better they retain their color, appearance and texture. To reduce the bitter aftertaste in the dish, you can add a little oil, salty or sour sauce (soy, balsamic vinegar, lemon) or sweet (honey, jam).

If nothing helps, adding a small amount of cheese or cheese sauce to the vegetables will always make them taste better.
