Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
- For the marinade: Whisk together the oil, vinegar, mustard, basil, honey, salt, pepper and garlic in a small bowl. The marinade can be made 2 days in advance and kept in the refrigerator.
- For the veggies and cheese: Place the mushrooms, tomatoes, chile pepper, squash and zucchini in a plastic bag and pour the marinade over. Marinate for 3 to 4 hours.
- Remove the vegetables from the marinade, reserving any leftover marinade. Thread each type of vegetable all onto 1 skewer to ensure proper cooking time for each vegetable. Place the zucchini, squash, pepper and mushroom skewers on the grill first. Grill, turning once, until the vegetables have charred and softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Grill the halloumi and cherry tomatoes, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Once the vegetables are cooked, transfer them from the skewer to a bowl. Toss with extra marinade. Serve the vegetables with toothpicks and the Spicy Avocado Dill Dip.
- Mash the avocado with a fork in a medium bowl. Add the sour cream and whisk until well combined. Stir in the dill, scallions, garlic, jalapeno, salt and black pepper. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Serve with chips or vegetable crudites and garnish with a few sprigs of fresh dill.
MOM'S BEEF SHISH KABOBS
My Mom has cooked this recipe for as long as I remember. Now that I live on my own, I can't wait to go back home over the holidays to have this excellent dish. Mom would probably be upset that I gave it away, but it is so delicious that I think everyone should have a chance to experience it. Technically shish kabobs use lamb, so these should be called beef kabobs, but this is the family recipe and what we call it.

Tips:
- Select semi-hard cheeses that hold their shape well during grilling, such as Havarti, Gouda, or Provolone.
- Use flavorful and aromatic marinades to impart distinct tastes to the cheese kabobs. Experiment with herb-infused oils, citrus juices, or spicy rubs.
- Ensure the cheese is evenly coated with the marinade and let it rest for an adequate time to absorb the flavors.
- Cut the cheese into uniform cubes or slices for consistent cooking and even browning.
- Pre-soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
- Skewer the cheese cubes or slices along with other ingredients like grilled vegetables, fruits, or marinated meats for a colorful and flavorful presentation.
- Grill the kabobs over medium heat to prevent the cheese from melting too quickly and becoming overly soft.
- Keep a close eye on the kabobs during grilling to ensure they don't overcook and become rubbery.
- Serve the marinated Havarti cheese kabobs immediately while the cheese is still warm and slightly melted for the best taste and texture.
