Memorial Day 2019 Celebration

Memorial Day Celebration includes a menu for the most solemn of the Red White and Blue Holidays of the summer.

Memorial Day (or Decoration Day) is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering and honoring persons who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.^[1]

Memorial Day 2019 is also the unofficial kick off for the summer season. And it’s about time!

Memorial Day Food is often burgers and hot dogs – but we’ll be doing that again July 4th and then again over Labor Day Weekend. So we decided to mix it up a little bit. You could certainly use this menu for those other Red White and Blue holidays too – break it up a little, while keeping it easy and picnic-y.

Everything except for the grilling can be done in advance, making this a perfect party menu. All you have to do once the guests arrive is relax and have a festively colored drink!

“Fireball Truffles” full name is Fireball No Bake Cake Mix Truffles. But that’s a real mouthful – they’re so easy to make, and the only mouthful you’re going to want is one of these beauties. Buzzed Cherry Bombs are on this platter with the Fireball Truffles. That’s a boozy little combination!
