Happy Maple Monday, friends!

Summer veggies are coming in strong right now, and we've got the perfect way to dress them up — our Maple Balsamic Grilled Vegetable Medley.

Bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes hit the grill until charred and sweet, then get finished with a glaze made from our own pure Vermont maple syrup and balsamic vinegar. It's the kind of side dish that steals the show at any summer cookout — and it comes together in under 30 minutes.

Get the full recipe here!

Shop our website for everything you'll need for this recipe. And while you're there, stock up on the maple syrup that makes it happen — plus everything else you need for your next cookout, from our farm to your table. Visit our website and shop our full lineup, online any time.
