Charred chicken, juicy steak, honkin' burgers--this is the stuff of Memorial Day meals. Things that require two strong fist-holds and a bib to consume properly.
So we feel for you vegetarians. What can you eat on that backyard barbecue menu--the bean dip? Nay, we say. That's not enough. Here is a meatless Memorial Day lineup that any red-blooded American man or woman would savor along with you.
Grilled Marinated Vegetables with Fresh Mozzarella
No one said because you're a vegetarian doesn't mean you can't use the grill.
White Bean Ragout with Toast (pictured)
Keep the grill going to char the toast.
Mixed Greens with Mustard Dressing
Simple mixed greens get a bite from mustardy dressing.
Chocolate Ice Cream
Straight up.
And beer is vegetarian, right? Drink that.
