SEAR, SIZZLE, & SERVE!
Sear, Sizzle and Serve! What other holiday could be summed up with a burst of alliteration? What other event could stir up (or, in the kewl spirit, should we say “whisk up?!”) such patriotic images and the bold, crisp sound of those all-American trumpeters than a commemoration of the inspirational sacrifices made by those who put their country and their freedoms first? Memorial Day, of course! In the USA, we’re honored to salute the amazing devotion of our servicemen and –women who have given the utmost to protect us. That’s why it’s time to break out the grills, heat up the barbecues, start up the stovetops, and enjoy summertime’s dynamic duo – the great outdoors, and the literally red-white-and-blue-and-every-other-color-of-freshness-and-flavor that nature serves up. Now, it’s our turn to serve up our favorite eats, and the best part is that we can lighten them up and pack in the nutrition, while still feeling our best and having fun!
In keeping with the American theme, let’s zoom in on some White House culture! If your friends and family are the Cabinet members you can take over as Cook-in-Chief and, as a group, stand up for the rights of your hungry taste-buds this Memorial Day and make it a memorable celebration!
