Plant-based seasonal culinary trends

Overview

During National Wellness Month in August, culinary focus has centered on plant-based and seasonal recipes. Initial highlights included vegan-friendly options such as blueberry muffins with black elderberry spread and plant-based French toast, alongside summer dishes like zucchini lasagna and Greek chicken kabobs designed to utilize peak produce.

Subsequent culinary trends have emphasized Mediterranean-inspired ingredients and high-fiber meals. Examples include a vegetarian cassoulet featuring eggplant, peppers, and zucchini with white beans, as well as a lemony lentil and roasted eggplant salad paired with harissa-tahini sauce.
