Grilling season, here we come! I’ve put together 8 healthy Memorial Day grilling recipes for your headed into summer festivities.
We are still in a holding pattern, waiting for Mother Nature to give us a break. She’s been plenty generous in the rain department and we still have planting to do.
In the meantime, the least we can do is eat some yummy food, right??
I did a little farm girl research and found some grilling recipes I thought you’d like.
If you need some traditional side dishes like creamy potato salad, baked beans, or roasted sweet potatoes I've got you covered, too.
Check ‘em out!
Memorial Day Grilling Recipes
Grilled Hawaiian Barbecue Chicken in Foil – The Recipe Critic
Make ahead and no fuss! And as far as dirty dishes are concerned, well, there are none.
Avocado Turkey Burgers – The Love Nerds
I’ve never met an avocado I didn’t love and these look light and delicious. Cook these babies until the internal temp is 165 degrees. I won’t judge if you throw some bacon on top.
Chicken Pesto Kabobs – Damn Delicious
Four ingredients and these can be grilled or baked. Keep this recipe on hand in case there’s a rain delay. That seems to be a trend these days.
