| | Need idea for a BBQ side dish
So my brother is throwing a big BBQ this Saturday with LOTS of people. We each have to bring a dish. I don't want to do the typical pasta salad/fruit salad/potato salad routine, so any other ideas? Thanks!

no pasta salad at all or you just don't want to bring a run-of-the-mill salad?

Well it's technically a pasta salad but I really love this one for something different. Recipes : Spinach Artichoke Pasta Salad : Food Network
My kids hate it so I never get to make it.

How about some marinated grilled veggies? Cut bell peppers into quarters, onions into 1/2-inch thick slices, and zucchini into 1/4-1/2-inch thick planks. Marinate for at least an hour in a mixture of lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, minced thyme or rosemary, salt and pepper, then grill till soft and caramelized.
