- Slice the tomato into rounds.
- Peel the onion and slice into ¼-inch-thick rings.

- Thinly slice the green onions and radishes.
- Roughly chop the cilantro leaves and finely chop the stems.
- In a salad bowl, toss the shredded cabbage slaw with the green onions, radishes, cilantro, half of the pumpkin seed dukkah, and half of the tahini–green goddess dressing. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and more dressing as desired. Garnish with as much of the remaining dukkah as you like.

Cook
Burgers & Brats
- Season the burgers with salt and pepper. Pat the brats dry with a paper towel, then prick each in a few places with a fork.
- Grill the burgers and brats over direct heat, uncovered, for 4-5 min, then flip and move to indirect heat and close the lid. Cook the burgers for 3-5 more min and the brats for 5-6 more min. (If you want melted cheddar cheese, add it the last 1-2 min of cooking.) Transfer to a serving platter and cover with foil.
Mac & Cheese
- While the burgers and brats are cooking, follow the directions on the packages to heat the mac and cheese in the microwave. Transfer to a serving bowl and stir to combine. Cover with foil.
Asparagus
- After the burgers and brats are finished, grill the asparagus over direct heat, uncovered, for 5-7 min, or until bright green and tender, turning occasionally to lightly char on all sides.
- Meanwhile, empty the lemon-garlic herb butter into a small bowl. Cover with a damp paper towel and microwave in 10-sec increments until melted. Stir in the lemon zest and half of the lemon juice (or more as desired) until well combined.
- Arrange the grilled asparagus on a serving platter and drizzle with the melted butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper and toss until well coated. Garnish with the Italian cheese blend. Cover with foil.
Buns
- After cooking the asparagus, toast the brioche buns (if desired) on the grill over indirect heat for 2-4 min, or until golden brown. Transfer to the serving platter with the burgers and brats.
