to all ages. Even my young son eats his veggies when I prepare them this way."

DIRECTIONS
Cut the onion and orange into eight wedges; halve each wedge. Alternately
thread vegetables and orange pieces onto eight metal or soaked wooden skewers.
Place in a shallow oblong dish.
In a small bowl, whisk the oil, lemon juice, sugar, salt if desired, garlic
powder and pepper. Pour over skewers. Marinate for 15 minutes, turning and
basting frequently. Drain and discard marinade.
Prepare grill for indirect heat. Grill, covered, over medium indirect

orange juice just before serving.
