<br>
<br>Dear Hungry Girl,
<br>
<br>I need guilt-free ideas for my Memorial Day cookout! My family loves burgers, hot dogs, and lots of side dishes. How can I indulge -- and please my guests -- without sabotaging my diet? 
<br>

<br>Hi Katie,
<br>
<br>
<br>You've come to the right place. Memorial Day is the unofficial start of summer and a great time to celebrate! But it's too easy to consume thousands of calories in one sitting if you're not careful. Here are some recipes and finds for that backyard BBQ... 
<br>
<br>Burgers - A few years back, we debuted our first "outside-in" burger, and we've been stuffing patties ever since. They go over really well at backyard bashes -- everybody loves them! Try these Hawaiian-style and cheesy BBQ burgers, plus this classic Bacon Cheeseburger Patty. And these Buffalo-Style Blue Cheese Burgers aren't stuffed, but they do ROCK. Yum! As for store finds, I recently discovered Gourmet Chicken Grillers from Al Fresco, and Jennie-O Lean Turkey Burger Patties are great. And I always have a box of Boca Original Vegan Veggie/Meatless Burgers on hand! 
<br>
<br>Hot Dogs - I tend to go for hot dogs that are relatively low in fat with 70 calories or less each, like Hebrew National 97% Fat Free Beef Franks and Applegate Natural Uncured Chicken and Uncured Turkey Hot Dogs. For some awesome hot dog recipes, check out these ideas from earlier this month: the Mexicali-Style Hot Dog (with a DIY guac!) and Bacon BBQ Slaw Dog. Soooo good! And these regional makeovers -- Hot Kansas City Dog and Fully Loaded Chi-Dog -- are fantastic no matter where you live. 
<br>
<br>Skewers - Food on a stick makes for a great addition to any cookout. We've got veggie skewers with sauce, sweet 'n spicy steak kebabs, buffalo chicken skewers, teriyaki tofu on a stick... even fruit skewers! And the Saucy BBQ Seafood Skewers with Not-So-Secret BBQ Sauce, as seen on the "Hungry... Grill" episode of Hungry Girl, are a personal favorite. 
<br>
<br>Side Dishes - No BBQ spread is complete without some (guilt-free) sides. My number-one recommendation? I Can't Believe It's Not Potato Salad! I also love this Pineapple Black Bean Protein Topper -- it's like a salsa that goes well on burgers, dogs, seafood, and more. A good slaw is another must-have... Check out this Tangy Tex-Mex Slaw!
