The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) recommends eating at least 2½ cups of veggies a day, but most folks are falling short. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), only one in ten American adults meets the recommended amounts of vegetables every day.

You’re in luck, though! Vegans are uniquely positioned to meet that daily goal, because they don’t have animal products like meat and eggs displacing produce in their diet. More of the plate is available for antioxidant-packed fruits and vegetables.

In this chapter, you find recipes for dishes that will help you meet the USDA’s produce targets, like Sesame Sugar Snap Peas and Sautéed Kale with Garlic. These staples come together lightning fast, which is super handy if your main course is more labor-intensive.

You also get recipes for crowd-friendly sides for summer potlucks and cookouts, like Grilled Vegetable Skewers, Mediterranean Couscous Salad, and Pasta Salad with Creamy Dressing. Outside of picnic season, these substantive salads make excellent packed lunches!
