With Memorial Weekend ahead of us, I'm gearing up to visit family, enjoy a BBQ or two, and spend some time creating foods that scream warm weather and fun. It's the perfect time to introduce the kiddos and their friends to healthy foods. It's also a great time to swap recipes!

Join #FoodFri at 1pm Eastern, on May 22, 2015, to swap recipes and safety tips for the BBQ season, in both English and Spanish! Bring your favorite "virtual" plate to our table and browse others while you fill yourself with yummy, healthy goodness.

And, because a BBQ, just isn't a BBQ, without music,  we ask you to bring your favorite tunes as well! We're having a fiesta/party! So have fun, mingle and grab a few bites from our table. We're sure you'll find healthy can be tasty!
