Barbecue season doesn’t have to mean juicy meats dripping with sweet, gooey sauce. And outdoor dining doesn't have to equate to overly indulgent lazy Sundays complete with mayo-laden side dishes. There is a whole more to a barbecue — and gasp! — there is actually a healthy way to celebrate warm weather and outside dining.
Try this idea this summer: Go plant-based for an entire meal. Pick out your favorite summer veggie and throw it on the grill with some olive oil, salt and pepper. I promise that a grilled cauliflower steak can be just as “juicy” as grilled beef steak. Follow the link below for more advice.
