What is Carolyn Scott's approach to vegan summer grilling?

Hi! I'm Carolyn Scott-Hamilton. For vegan summer grilling, my approach is all about flavor, inclusivity, and sustainability.

I focus on big, crowd-pleasing mains like cauliflower “wings,” falafel burgers, Cajun grilled tofu, rainbow veggie skewers, grilled potato salad (veganized), and roasted garlic bread, so no one misses the meat. I layer texture and sauces—crispy coatings, bold spice rubs, marinades, and great condiments.

I also care about green grilling: choosing cleaner-burning grills when possible, shopping local and (ideally) organic, using compostable or reusable serveware, and making recycling and composting easy at parties. It’s about enjoying summer, keeping it fun and casual, but still aligned with a healthy, eco-conscious lifestyle.
