The food menu:
While you don’t have to go full-time veg to green your lifestyle, many people are surprised to learn that simply cutting out meat consumption is one of the most significant ways to help to the environment.

Appetizers: Green Been, Corn, and Tomato Salad

To ease mealtime preparation, cook the corn and beans early in the day, toss them with olive oil and smashed garlic, and keep them in the refrigerator. To remove corn kernels from the cob, hold the ear upright on its flat end on a cutting board; with a sharp knife, cut along the length of the cob to remove the kernels, turning the cob as you go.

On The Grill: Turkey Burgers
For juicy burgers, use ground turkey that's at least 7 percent fat. Sour cream, mango chutney, and mustard will give them additional flavor and moisture.

For Desert: Orange-Walnut Cake
This dessert makes guests happy in many ways. It's loaded with vitamins B12 (from the yogurt) and C (orange juice), folate (OJ, again), and omega-3 fatty acids (walnuts) -- all nutrients shown to boost your mood.
