Follow these heart healthy grilling tips: Avoid or limit fatty meats. Grill more fish. Go for skinless chicken breasts, instead of dark meat. Grill dense veggies like zucchini, eggplant, bell peppers and corn. Grill on the rack, so fat drips away from the food. Adventist HealthCare: Care. Compassion. Community.
