THM-Friendly Memorial Day Menu
It’s almost Memorial Day! It’s a day of remembrance and thankfulness for those who have died in active military service. It’s also a day that derailed my healthy eating plan last year, but I’m not going to let that happen this year! This is my Trim Healthy Mama Memorial Day Menu (S), and I’m really looking forward to it!
This meal plan was updated on May 20, 2025.
Here's what I'm making:
1. Pulled Pork from I Breathe I'm Hungry
5. Low-Carb Margaritas (with the stevia option) or Zevia soda
First, let’s talk about the main dish. If you’re invited to a barbecue, most of the meat there could be fine, as long as it wasn’t marinated in or served with a sugary sauce or dressing. And, it goes without saying, skip the bun if you’re having burgers!
Since we're cooking at home this year, I’m going to make the Pulled Pork instead. Have you ever noticed that when you’re an adult (especially once you become a mom), holidays are way busier and way less relaxing than they used to be? Me too. This is a fairly easy recipe, so having the main dish cooking all day will save a lot of time and stress (hopefully).
I have some good bottled drink ideas here if you don’t drink alcohol.
And to finish off the meal, any THM-friendly dessert will work!
These are all “S” recipes, and make sure you read Trim Healthy Mama for more details on how meals like this can help you lose weight!
For a delicious crossover (and other family members not in weight loss mode) I'd recommend adding some watermelon (E) and corn on the cob (E).
