We’re staying local this Memorial Day weekend, and quite frankly, I am very happy about that! We have a lot planned – dinner with friends, a graduation party, and a Memorial Day party on Sunday – but nothing really planned for Monday.
Once I realized that, I immediately went to my trust friend, Pinterest, and found some great recipes that we are going to try out! Click on any of the images to go directly to the recipe itself!
What are you planning on making for Memorial Day? I’d love to hear some different ideas! Check out some of my other pinned ideas on my Memorial Day Ideas Pinterest board!
Isabella @ La Bella Vida Design says
My honey & I will be staying local this Memorial day as well. All of these recipes look simply delectable..I especially love how cute the watermelon cut-outs look!
Dana says
Isabella, I’m hoping the cuteness of the watermelon cut-outs entice my boys to eat more of it! To get them to eat fruit is like torture for them (and me!)
Brittany says
Yum! I’ve got my eye on the brussel sprout salad!
Dana says
It is one of my favorite salads!!
Tiara says
I am so happy that you shared this blog post right before memorial weekend. It gives us time to try some of those yummy foods you shared! I hope you all have fun & an amazing weekend!
Dana says
I hope you do the same Tiara!

Great round-up! My mouth is now watering lol! Especially like the look of the red, white, & blue sangria.
Dana says
The sangria DOES look awesome…I may make a “test” batch today to see how it comes out 😉

I’m a hamburgers and hot dog kind of gal which I hope my family will be doing Monday. Happy Memorial Day to you!
Dana says

I’m not much of a cook, but these look yummy! Maybe I can talk someone else into making these!
Dana says
LOL Marissa!
Jasmine says
I really want to do some chicken kabobs. I’ll have to see what my dad wants to put together this weekend. I love a good cocktail though lol
Dana says
A good cocktail is definitely a must on a 3-day weekend 😉
Chantal says
Thanks for sharing! These all look so good! I have never heard of brussel sprout caesar salad… but I love both so combined they must be great! Thanks for joining the Link-It To Me Link Up Party this week, I hope you will party with us again next week!
