The unofficial start of summer is nearly here! Memorial Day is the first long weekend just before the summer solstice and people are ready to gather and celebrate. There\u2019s no better weekend to socialize outside and make delicious food than Memorial Day Weekend<\/strong>. That’s why this article brings you seven amazing, healthy recipes that will surprise your taste buds with bold flavors.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sad reality is that most people will abandon their diets and wolf down all sorts of unhealthy foods over the weekend. According to statistics, there are roughly 800 hotdogs eaten every second on Memorial Day. That means that about 72 million hotdogs are eaten on this day alone. Perhaps this is because roughly 57% of people engage in barbecuing, but maybe it\u2019s because Americans are inherently unhealthy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking to stay on track with your health goals, however, there are tasty recipes<\/strong> you can make that won\u2019t cause a caloric overload. Make the following recipes this coming holiday weekend and let us know how you like them.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
