Summer Grilling: Fresh, Flavorful Veggie Recipes for the Long Weekend

The long holiday weekend is the perfect time to fire up the grill and enjoy fresh, seasonal flavors. Whether you’re hosting a backyard gathering or planning a laid-back dinner at home, these vegetarian grilling recipes from our friends at National Co+op Grocers bring bold flavor, simple prep, and plenty of variety to the table.

Black Eyed Peas

Black eyed peas should be on everyone’s menu! They are so easy to prepare and make a wonderful savory dish or you can also use them for bean salads.

Black Lentil Delicata Squash Salad

Try this lovely warm salad for a chilly winter day, made with beautiful black lentils (also called beluga, as they look like caviar) which keep their shape.

Mexican Omelette

There’s something comforting about a hearty breakfast that’s quick enough for a weekday morning but special enough to linger over on a weekend. This cheesy potato and bean omelette checks every box, crispy golden potatoes, melted cheddar, a pop of salsa, and creamy avocado if you’re feeling indulgent.

Pea & Goat Cheese Fritters

Move over zucchini fritters. Pea fritters flavored with creamy goat cheese, zingy lemon, and fresh herbs are what we are craving. This is our ode to spring!

Lentil Tuna Salad

A simple combination of lentils and tuna makes a filling, delicious, high protein lunch to last you all afternoon.
