Hit the 'cue this weekend with these plant-forward switches to try this summer. ☀️

1️⃣ Grill it! Blend in mushrooms or beans to your next burger. Grill some vegetables as a side, too!

🍔 Get inspired and try these: tofu, mushroom, and sesame burgers with kimchi or grilled masala spiced falafel burgers with cilantro chutney, raita, and grilled mango

2️⃣ Smoke it! Smoke vegetables to accompany your cookout — try sweet potatoes and whole heads of cabbage! (Just "beer can" the cabbage first!)

🍠 Our ideas? Try out smoked sweet potatoes with a lime tahini sauce or smoked whole "beer can" style spice-rubbed cabbage with a maple bacon vinaigrette.

3️⃣ Skewer it! Add some interest to your next kebab with the addition of plant-based proteins and unusual vegetables or fruits.

🍢 Try these out: yakitori tofu, pineapple, and red pepper skewers or grilled watermelon, cucumber, and feta skewers

Happy Birthday Julia Child! 👩‍🍳 This author and Emmy-winning television pioneer was the first woman chef inducted into the Culinary Institute of America’s Hall of Fame, and we wanted to take a moment to recognize the impact she made on the culinary world (and is still making through her foundation)!

The dog days of summer are here, meaning it's time to venture outside for a picnic 🌳🍃

Did you know that the word picnic comes from the French word "pique-nique," meaning pick nothing? The French were the first to introduce the modern idea of a picnic when royal parks were made public after the French Revolution in 1789!

Get outside and enjoy a picnic 👇

🍳 WHAT TO MAKE

- Don't make something complicated. Stick to cold, composed salads and pre-made sandwiches — don't forget about guests with food allergies or preferences!

- Consider making a cheese board or other snack board in a sealable container.


🔊 WHAT TO BRING

- Picnic blankets galore! There might not be tables and chairs available where you are hosting your picnic.

- Ditch the cute picnic basket and use a cooler for your perishable items. (Keeping items cold helps prevent bacteria from growing in your food, which could make you sick!)

- A picnic isn't just about the food. Bring a speaker and yard games like co****le or bocce ball.


♻️ HOW TO REDUCE WASTE

- Ditch the plastic and paper plates for enamel plates or other reusables (they're also easier to eat off!).

- Avoid throwing away leftovers by bringing containers to package leftovers for guests to take home.

- Focus on bringing beverages in recyclable containers like cans or glass bottles.

💡 KEEP IT SIMPLE

- Organize your cooler by stacking the items in the order you plan to serve them.

- Avoid stress by being over-prepared. For example, bring extra garbage bags, napkins, and even hand sanitizer.

- Ask guests to bring something, even if it's just packaged snacks, drinks, or picnic blankets!

Beat the summer heat with these summer mocktail ideas — you're sure to keep cool in more ways than one! 😎

Read on below for the "recipes." (Don't worry, it's all vibes. Adjust amounts to taste!)

🍉 Watermelon Cooler | Start with 1/2 part sugar and lime juice, add two parts each watermelon juice and two parts water (try sparkling for some texture!), and top it with smashed mint and, of course, some ice.

🍊 Sunrise | This one's all about layers. Add ice to your glass, two parts orange juice, muddled strawberries, 1/2 part orange soda for fizz, and 1/2 part grenadine syrup to create the sunrise effect!

🍍 Spicy Pineapple Nojito | Prep your glass with a chili-lime salt rim. In the bottom of the glass, muddle 1/2 part sugar and lime juice with mint in the bottom of your glass, add ice, and top with 2 parts pineapple juice and 1 part lemon-lime soda.

🍋 Nopaloma | Mix 1/2 part sugar, lime juice, and 1 part grapefruit juice in the bottom of your glass. Add 2 - 3 parts lemon-lime soda and top with ice!

🍯 Lavender Lemonade Crush | Make a lavender simple syrup with culinary lavender. Mix 1/2 part lavender syrup, 2 parts water and lemon juice, and a drizzle of honey. Top with ice!

Cool down under the funbrella this summer! 🏖️ These foods will do the chilling for you 👇

🥒 Slice cucumbers into minty yogurt salad or blend into a green gazpacho.

🍓 Berries are a fresh treat when tossed with fresh mint and lime juice. Consider freezing them into ice cubes for flavorful hydration!

🍉 Enjoy watermelon on a stick with chili-lime salt or blend with cucumber and freeze into popsicles.

🥬 Leafy greens aren't just for salads. Enjoy butter lettuce wraps with your favorite fillings or add to Vietnamese spring rolls with other colorful vegetables!

🍍Toss pineapple with lime, cilantro, and jalapeño or muddle mango and mint into a sparkling lemonade for a refreshing take on tropical fruits.

Get the freshest produce this summer with our seasonal produce guide! 👇

🍓 Raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, oh my! Throughout summer, you'll find the most tasty berries at your local farmer's market. Eat them raw or cook them into desserts.

🥒 We know this is a cucumber emoji, but zucchini and summer squash are perfect additions to any summer meal — just roast or grill them. (Justice for squash emojis!)

🌽 Corn is as versatile as it is delicious. Enjoy the crisp, sweet kernels raw in salads or salsas or cook them into seasonal pastas. Just add corn to everything, tbh.

🍒 Stone fruits like cherries, apricots, and peaches are delightful eaten raw or cooked into savory and sweet applications. (Stay tuned for our stone fruit guide for more detailed uses!) 🍅 Although perfect for an ephemeral time, tomatoes are a great addition to any meal, whether eaten raw or cooked.

🌱 Okra is delicious in traditional applications like gumbo, but it can also be pickled, roasted, fried, or and used as a natural thickening agent in soups or stews! (We also are vying for an okra emoji. Who's with us? 🙋)

🍉 Cantaloupe, watermelon, and honeydew are some of the most popular melons. Eat 'em raw or even add them to seasonal smoothies, popsicles, or juices!

Choose the right fruits and vegetables this summer (and year round!) with some tips from Bon Appétit chefs to help you get more value (and less waste!) from your produce.

👩‍🌾 Shop local! Produce picked at peak harvest is fresher, nutrient rich, and slower to spoil.

🕰️ Time it out. Buy a mix of produce with different shelf lives to ensure your produce lasts between shopping trips.

🧊 Know how to store it. Check out our guide on whether to store things in the fridge, on the counter, or in a dark pantry at the link in our bio.

👃 Sense the ripeness. Use your senses (not just touch!) to determine whether something is ripe.

Explore our rundown on what to do:

👀 Check for a deep color, but don't fear funky shapes!

👃 Smelling fruits provide an indication of flavor and sweetness.

✋ Most fruits and vegetables should be firm with only a slight give to them.

👅 Be sure to taste if there are samples.

👂 Certain produce like melons and squash will have a hollow echo when ripe!

Looking for a nutrient-rich, flavorful burger this summer? Try these chili-spiced black bean burgers! 🍔


Makes 6 servings

INGREDIENTS

2 tablespoons oil

1 medium onion, diced

1 medium red pepper, diced

4 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped

2 teaspoons chili powder, or more to taste

1/8 teaspoon salt

1-1/2 cups black beans, rinsed, drained, and divided

1/2 cup water

2 cups buckwheat, cooked and divided

1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

Slices, tomato, red onion, and avocado for topping (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Heat oil in large sauté pan over medium heat and add onion, pepper, and garlic. Sauté until soft, then add chili powder, salt, 1 cup of black beans, and water. Cook for several minutes, until water has almost completely evaporated.


Let bean mixture cool and pour into blender with 1 cup of buckwheat. Blend until well mixed but not completely liquified. Pour mixture into bowl (or back into now-cooled sauté pan) and toss with remaining black beans, buckwheat, and cilantro.

Preheat grill to medium heat. Scoop out 1/2 cup portions and press firmly into patties. Lightly oil the grates and place patties on grill for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until heated through. Add bun and optional toppings as desired.
