If you’ve been vegan for any length of time, chances are you’ve lived this one: you get invited to a classically omnivorous holiday spread, where animal-based mains and sides are the main event, and there’s nary a plant-based dish in sight.When I went vegan about 15 years ago, this became one of my missions (right alongside veganizing all my favorite comfort foods): finding plant-based alternatives for celebration meals.Christmas and Thanksgiving, sure — but also Memorial Day and the 4th of July.

Because who says the meat eaters get to have all the summer fun? What follows is my roundup of favorite vegan cookout dishes — everything from potato and pasta salads to burgers, tacos, and soul food.Whether you’re hosting a meatless party, looking for a few vegan dishes for your plant-based guests, or just bringing a few vegan sides to a potluck so you’ve got more than tortilla chips to munch on, these are tried-and-true and good enough that even the meat-eaters will be loading up their plates.So fire up the grill and let’s get into it.
