Oh I looove to grill vegetables! WHenever I make burgers for the kids, I just make veggies for me. The best "burger" in the world is one made from fresh vegs. I prep my veggies:
thick round slices of sweet onions
wedges of red and green peppers
zucchini and yellow crookneck squash, sliced 1/4" thick lengthwise so they are long strips, not coins
Circles of eggplant (optional)
Then I brush all the veggies or spray them with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and grill until tender. Then just pile the veggies onto a bun (or a square of foccacia bread is YUMMY) with a little light mayo or mashed avocado, and a bit of feta sprinkled on top. OMG SO GOOD.
I also like to grill whole portabella caps and put that on a bun like a burger.
Grilled pineapple (brushed in olive oil, lime juice and sprinkled with chili powder) makes a nice dessert.
