Ingredients:

– 2 packages of Beyond Meat Sausages 
– 1 pineapple
– 1 red pepper
– 1 red onion
– 1 batch of GF Teriyaki Sauce (recipe above)

Directions:

1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before making your kabobs.

2. Cut your vegan sausages, pineapple, red pepper and red onion into large, bite-sized chunks.

3. Assemble your skewers in whatever order you’d like.

4. Pour the Teriyaki Sauce over the skewers and use a brush to make sure all of the pieces are evenly coated.

5. Marinate in the fridge for at least a few hours (overnight is best!).

6. Place them on a hot grill and cook evenly on all sides, brushing them with the sauce left in the bottom of the pan until they’ve reached your desired done-ness. Enjoy!
