Vegetarian, Vegan 4th of July Menu and Tips
Summer Recipes: Delicious, Easy, Chillable, Portable, Grillable
Most of our 4th of July recipes can be made ahead, and stored in the fridge. Some, like the salads, can be made in parts, then thrown together.
Travelling Recipes: The simplest way is to store, transport and serve in the same containers. A cooler is handy, but a cardboard box lined with newspaper & old towels also works. Throw in frozen gel packs or a plastic container of ice cubes.
Don't try to make the entire menu - that's way too much work! If you're vegan, and you're sure you won't be able to eat any of the food at the cookout, make a couple of filling recipes so you know you'll get something to eat besides watermelon. If you're hosting, ask the other guests to contribute their favorites.
How can veg & non-veg share a grill? The contamination of veggie foods with meat is a big issue for vegans, which non-veg often don't get. To avoid conflict, discuss and set the grill rules well ahead of time. Everyone should understand and agree on a no-meat area set aside for veggie use.
If there are mosty non-veg at your cookout, with a lot of grilling going on, one option is to bring a small hibachi, where you can peacefully & safely grill your veggie burgers. Or use the hibachi for the non-veg grill, if it's a mostly veg party.
Every holiday has its traditional dishes, often meat or dairy based, and there's usually one guest (not always non-veg), who is offended that you aren’t eating the same as them. For help, read the Savvy Veg Report Veg and Non-Veg Eat Together.
Don't forget the extras: Lots of water, a big watermelon with a big knife to cut it, potato chips & cut-up raw veggies for dipping, burger fixings - mayo, ketchup, mustard, relish, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and re-useable dishes & utensils for a green cookout.
Happy 4th of July, and a great summer!
