Happy almost-fourth of July! After traveling through Europe for nearly a month, Jack and I are ready to celebrate the USA by, well, sleeping and probably sleeping some more.

Cookouts are not always a vegetarian’s best friend. Over the years, I’ve eaten more dry cardboard-flavored Boca burgers than I care to remember.

Vegetarian or not, these would make a delicious addition to any summer bbq.

Since I was one hand down last week my wonderful husband took over and cooked this lovely meal for us. Sunday night, I sat back and drank wine while Jack carefully peeled, chopped, prepped, and grilled.

I love ketchup… Jack hates it… so the mustard added a nice kick and kept the overall tomato-y factor in balance.
