Weekend Cook Out

My birthday was this week, and I've invited a dozen friends over for a Sunday afternoon cook out and pumpkin carving event. I've got an awesome grill and am trying to decide what to make. So far I'm thinking I'll do a boneless leg of lamb on the rotisserie, and a pot of mussels in a wine cream broth (on ths stove top in the house) to go with it. I have vegetarians coming, so I was going to grill some zucchini, sweet potatoes, and some portabello mushrooms, and a friend is bringing macaroni and cheese. Can anyone recommend other "autumny" dishes I can make outdoors to complement the completely unrelated items I'm planning on doing so far?

That is a varied menu!

Apple pie, salad........I was wondering about a cole slaw. Maybe a spinach salad something for a bit more greens for those who pay attention to that. I'd make it a spinach and beet salad with blue cheese........but few people like beets.
I'm reading sheepieboss's ideas and in my head I'm combining them:
Apple, spinach, pecan, cabage salad with a tart dressing. I can't tell
you why that sounds so good to me right now. I think I might use
this idea for my party this weekend.....

I have nothing helpful to add, but I'm drooling over the mussels in wine cream broth...how do you make the broth? (I usually just do wine, butter and garlic...but I'm interested in branching out.)
A couple of GREAT items to grill, especially for vegetarians would be fresh Pineapple and fresh Peaches if you have any. Spray them with some of your favorite salad dressing and grill away. They are great especially when they caramelize.
