With the weather being so nice, we were craving a summer time meal and picnic. For the burgers, we took the easy way out and used Boca vegan burgers. We did add some oil to both sides (helps to keep it from sticking to the grill) and some spices. Grill them for about 3 minutes and they're done. Top with any toppings you like (lettuce, tomato, ketchup, vegan mayo, mustard, avocado, etc). For the coleslaw, I like to use the recipe from 1000 Vegan Recipes. It has that creamy/tangy taste we all grew up on. The baked beans are pinto and again, if you're in a rush, you can cheat and buy Bush's Vegetarian Baked Beans and spice them up with some mustard, pure maple syrup and coconut sugar. Steaming fresh or frozen green beans cannot be beat. After they're steamed, add a little extra virgin olive oil and salt and they're good to go. To top it all off, end with some sweet watermelon. Of course, it just wouldn't be a summer meal unless you do it picnic style. Even if you're indoors, throw a blanket on the floor and gather together for some family time.
