vegetarian primer • Determining the number of vegetarians isn’t an exact science, since even many self-proclaimed vegetarians aren’t really sure how to define the term. With more than a few types, it’s easy to understand the confusion. Here’s a road map to help you navigate the vegetarian highway.

CHARCOAL GRILLING temperature guide

marinate: how to flavor & tenderize meat & vegetables • Look around your kitchen, and you’ll see everything needed to add extra layers of flavor or to tenderize your favorite meal — vinegars, fruit juices, milk, vegetables, spices, even wine. We explain all that you should know about marinating and how it works . . . while you sit back and relax.

LOCAL BOUNTY • Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the abundance of gorgeous produce while also making strives to improve your carbon footprint. See how you, too, can shop, grow, and cook your way to being a little more ”green” this season.

SHOPPING, GROWING & COOKING GREEN • Consider taking some small steps to reduce your carbon footprint. Seek out reusable produce bags, metal water bottles, heirloom seeds, and more.
