I'm going hiking (with bars and mf pretzels, of course!) and catching up on my sleep! I am trying to figure out how to handle the various friend/family bbq's. i am going to bring salad and sneak a bar in my purse. And drink a shake before I go...

Let's share our ideas!

This year at our main get together, I am bringing the BBQ food.

So here is the menu:
The biggest most colorful tossed green salad ever with light dressing on the side.
Burgers, smoked sausage, hotdogs and chicken breast, prepared without added fats of course, and light or fat free option for the hot dogs and sausage, as well as very lean beef for the burgers. Regular and low fat cheese option for burgers as well.
Lots of raw vegies and dipping sauce made with ff Greek yogurt
Reduced fat deviled eggs. Whole grain rolls as an option.
Baked beans made from scratch without lots of fat or sugar, but still yummy good.(does have molasses and bacon rind for flavor)
Cauliflower "potato salad'.
Fresh melon.
Coleslaw, fat and sugar free, homemade.
Lime chiffon pie.(diet gourmet recipe, yummy)Sugar free frozen fruit popsicles, fudgesicles, dreamsicles.
Berries (blue, straw, rasberries) in summer cream (low-fat and oh so good)
Iced herb and regular tea, lemonade.
The indulgence, (for others not me) will be s'mores by the camp fire! The above will be feeding 45 of us for a Church camp clean-up day.

Bunti those re great ideas!
Also veggie bugers would work. Several frozen ones work on grills, just need to make sure by reading the label.
