The Healthy Mama Kitchen Podcast: Healthy Cooking Hacks, Meal Planning & Meal Prep for Busy Moms

This weekend Kris is in Nashville celebrating her sister's bachelorette party- so we're bringing you a formerly Patreon-exclusive episode all about cookouts- recipes, tips and more! Get the full cookout guide on Healthy Mama Meals (try it for a week free!): healthymamameals.com

My Cookout Menu Formula:


2-3 appetizers


2-3 meat items (1 not red meat) + vegetarian items if necessary


1-2 starchy sides for less than 10; 2-3 for more than 10


1-3 green/veggie-based items for less than 10; 2-3 for more than 10 (I did 4 for a larger crowd!)


1 fruit


2-3 desserts

Don't forget buns, lettuce, tomato, onion and condiments (bring out a couple of special condiments like pickled onions or chipotle aioli to level it up!)
