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

1️⃣ Grill it! Blend in mushrooms or beans to your next burger. Consider grilling 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 cook out — 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

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!

This summer spread is sure to refresh! Make sure you save this recipe for fava bean and fresh mint spread so you can come back to it later. 👀

Makes about 2 cups
INGREDIENTS
2 pounds fresh young fava beans
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 – 1/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, plus more for garnish
1/8 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS
Add beans to boiling water for 1-2 minutes until just softened. Drain and remove fava beans from the outer pod and then peel shell from each individual bean.

Pulse beans with lemon juice and add olive oil slowly until texture is smooth.

Blend in mint and salt until incorporated.

Serve with chopped local spring vegetables (radishes nicely complement the spread) or toasted bread and garnish with remaining mint sprigs.

Here are our top 5 reasons to eat seasonally this summer! ☀️

1️⃣ It`s a party in your mouth! If you`ve ever eaten a lackluster tomato in December, you know what we`re talking about.
2️⃣ Cooking can be simple. The bold flavors of in-season produce need little help to taste delicious.
3️⃣ It`s packed with nutrients. Produce picked at peak ripeness and consumed soon after harvest offers the most vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients.
4️⃣ Variety is the spice of life. By eating seasonally you’re guaranteed to get a variety of flavors, textures, and nutrients in your diet.
5️⃣ It’s budget friendly. In-season produce costs less because it’s available in greater abundance during its peak growing season.
