Meatless Monday: Picnic-Perfect Recipes

PICNIC RECIPES
Hollis Templeton
With summer (unofficially) in full swing, potlucks are moving to the patio (or park, beach, or backyard), where your go-to hearty soup recipes are no longer going to cut it. It’s time to brainstorm some fresh, portable, perfect-for-summer picnic foods for your next outdoor meal. ??While you’re at it, do something that will help keep your favorite al fresco dining spot gorgeous and green: Make your meal meat-free. The United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization estimates the meat industry generates nearly a fifth of the manmade greenhouse gas emissions that are accelerating climate change around the globe (that’s more than transportation!).
On top of that, worldwide demand for meat continues to grow each year. Lessening that demand—even if that just means going meatless one day a week—can help shrink your carbon footprint and slow this trend. Get started with the five delicious vegetarian recipes below.?
Six-Layer Dip Low-sodium taco seasoning, low-fat cheese, and nonfat sour cream lighten up this tasty—and typically guilt-inducing—party food.

VEGETARIAN BBQ
If you’ve kicked off every summer since you were a kid with a backyard barbeque brimming with hot dogs, hamburgers, and all the fixings, mix things up this Memorial Day. Salute the health of your holiday guests by grilling up a completely meatfree meal. Cutting out meat, even if it’s not an everyday occurrence, can help curb obesity and reduce cancer, heart disease, and diabetes risk.
We’ve rounded up five scrumptious vegetarian recipes that are sure to surprise anyone in search of standard cookout fare. Baked beans, burgers, potato salad, and shortcake—no frou frou food here!
Grilled Portobello and Roasted Pepper Burgers The meaty taste of these mushrooms won’t leave anyone asking “Where’s the beef?”
Honey Slow-Cooked Baked Beans Dark honey, chile peppers, adobo—this meatless recipe is proof that you don’t need bacon for beans that are bursting with flavor.
Classic Chilled Potato Salad Russet potatoes tend to fall apart in salads, so pick red potatoes and add a colorful kick to this meatless dish.
