Simple Memorial Day Meal

I’m going to let you in on the secret formula for a smash-hit Memorial Day weekend meal: Start with a sweet and refreshing drink and yummy salty appetizer. Next add a classic side salad and some grilled meat (a great sauce or marinade can’t hurt!), and finish it off with a berry pie. Follow this tried-and-true method and you can’t go wrong.

Here’s a Memorial Day menu to get you started in the right direction. Full bellies and smiling faces are sure to be the result!

Step 1: Sweet drink...Watermelon Lemonade

Step 2: Appetizer...Cucumber and Dill Yogurt Chip Dip

Step 3: Classic Side Salad...Potato Salad (with an Asparagus Twist!)

Step 4: Grilled Meat...Barbecued Chicken Kebabs

Step 5: Berry Dessert...Classic Strawberry Cream Pie
