Memorial Day Recipes

Tasty recipes that will "wow" guests at your Memorial Day bbq.

Patriotic Taco Salad would be great as an appetizer or a main dish.  Serve with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa on the side. The American flag design is perfect for Memorial Day. TasteOfHome.com

Summer Chicken Burgers are sure to delight guests.  Chicken breasts are topped with fresh avocado, caramelized Vidalia onions, and provolone cheese. Feel free to marinate chicken before grilling. If you prefer, serve toppings on the side so everyone can build their own chicken burger. AllRecipes.com

Grilled Pizza is a tasty twist on traditional grill food. Prepare pizza dough and place on the grill, then top pizza with sauce, mozzarella cheese, and your choice of toppings. Store bought dough may be used. AllRecipes.com
