☀️ Mediterranean Halloumi & Vegetable Skewers
These Mediterranean Halloumi and Vegetable Skewers are colourful, quick and perfect for barbecues or easy summer dinners. Salty halloumi turns golden beside courgette, peppers, onion and tomatoes, while Mediterranean Spice Blend brings the whole skewer together. A squeeze of lemon makes every bite sing.
⏱️ Prep & Cook Time

🍽️ Serving Suggestions
- Serve with couscous salad or warm flatbreads.
- Add a spoonful of yoghurt or hummus.
- Swap halloumi for firm tofu for a plant-based option.
💛 Why This Recipe Works
- Large, even pieces cook at the same rate.

🌿 Spice & Dipity Tip
Do not cut the halloumi too small or it may split when threaded onto the skewers.
