Memorial Day Menu with a Mediterranean Twist

​Who says Memorial Day cookouts can’t be healthy? The Mediterranean Diet consistently provides tasty meal options – including simple cookout dishes that can easily replace your hotdogs, mac and cheese and mayonnaise-based sides.
 
The menu I have put together emphasizes eating plant-based foods (fruits and veggies) and replacing butter with healthy fats such as olive oil.
 
Our bodies don’t tend to recognize calories from processed foods such as starches and sugars, so we tend to gain weight and it causes inflammation in our bodies leading to higher risk for cancer, diabetes, stroke and heart attack. 
 
For the recipes on the menu, click the name of the dish and it will take you to the recipe:
 

Mediterranean Grilled Chicken with a Dill Greek Yogurt Sauce
 
Grilled Shrimp with Roasted Garlic Cilantro Sauce
 
Summer Watermelon Salad with Cucumber
 
Grilled Vegetable Salad with Olive Oil and Feta
 
Basil and Mint Yellow Squash Spiralized Salad
 
Roasted Red Peppers with Pesto and Goat Cheese
 
Skinny Greek Veggie Dip
 
Hope you all enjoy,
Dr. Sick
