Vegetarian Sausage, Potato, and Corn Boil
with green salad
We last featured this vegetarian-friendly twist on a Shrimp Boil in 2021, and 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 for a quick tutorial! (This video shows the original shrimp-based version, but the vegetarian version uses the same staggered approach to adding each ingredient.)

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.
