POTATOES ON THE GRILL + KALE. IMPRESS YOUR FRIENDS!
We all know how to throw a vegan burger on the grill, maybe some tofu or veggie skewers, but have you ever grilled potatoes or kale? It is a thing, thanks to Jane! It’s a healthy way to enjoy the BBQ summer season….throwing your veggies and root veggies on the grill instead of just vegan burgers and hot dogs! It’s easy to keep on eating healthy. Jane took her grilled potatoes to a large 4th of July vegan cookout, and they were a hit!
