May is for Summertime Sides

As we are well into the refreshing season of Spring and the temperature rises, we look forward to all the fun we will have this Summer. If Spring would divulge itself of the eye-puffing pollen, it would be a top contender for favorite season. However, this season gives us ample opportunity to prepare for the heat of the Summer.

With Summer comes pool parties, BBQs, and outdoor adventures. We need to look our best with the less modest and lightweight clothing sported in the humid and hot weather. Waiting until Summer is in full swing will be too late to shed those Winter pounds-too many Christmas and Valentine’s treats.

May is a great time to focus on our figure and the side dishes we will want to have on hand for the next family or friend’s gathering. The sides we serve can often times be the highlight of any party and going beyond the typical coleslaw or french fries will help you stand out on the buffet table.

This month we will remember that it does not have to be deep fried or saturated with pounds of sugar to be the perfect sidekick to any celebration. These recipes are also great additions for weeknight dinners or a light lunch.

Let’s focus on healthier lifestyle foods!
