with green salad

Active: 60 Total: 60
Ever since we first featured this fun meal, a vegetarian-friendly twist on a Shrimp Boil, it just doesn't feel like summer without it. It is simple to prepare and fun to serve - just be sure you give yourself enough time to boil each component for the recommended time provided.
Smarts: If this is your first boil check out this video we filmed the first time we featured the meal in 2017. (This video shows the original shrimp-based version, but the vegetarian version uses the same staggered approach to adding each ingredient.)

Make

  1. Fill a large stockpot with water. Season generously with some salt and first part of Old Bay. Squeeze juice from lemons into water and then drop lemon rinds into water. Bring to a boil.
  2. When water is boiling, add potatoes and onions. Boil for 10 minutes, until potatoes are starting to turn tender.
  3. While potatoes are boiling, in a large mixing bowl whisk together honey, vinegar, and olive oil. Add lettuce and tomatoes to dressing. Wait to toss until right before serving.
