It’s the unofficial kick-off to summer this weekend and I have been trying to pick out a menu that captures this essence.  I’ve looked through the 2 Sisters 2 Cities recipe index to find the perfect Memorial Day Weekend menu ideas:

On The Grill:

• Grilled Fish in Foil Packets with Scallion Rice
• Southie Steak Tips
• Lamb Sliders with Blue Cheese

On The Side:

• Orzo and Spinach Salad with Lemon-Cranberry Vinaigrette
• Sweet Potato French Fries
• Nantucket Birthday Clam Chowder
• Sausage, Pepper, Onion and Potato Bake (this could definitely be served as a main course as well)

Dessert:

• Nan’s Nutella Cookies
• Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies
• Extreme Three Layer Brownies

Make up a batch of red wine sangria and it’s shaping up to be a great Memorial Day weekend!  What are your menu plans for this patriotic holiday?
