Grilled Summer Vegetable Kabobs with Spicy Franks

I like eating my franks with lot of vegetables on side. Grilling franks makes it crispier and complemented with vegetable kabobs it was a complete meal with full serving of fiber. The Jalapeno sauce adds a kick to bland tasting franks and i eliminated the fatty cheese from the original recipe of Jalapeno sauce.
