    25 + Memorial Day Recipes that are perfect for your holiday weekend!

    25 + Memorial Day Recipes that are perfect for your holiday weekend! Find more recipes on cravingsofalunatic.com. (@CravingsLunatic)

    Are you ready for Memorial Day? It's the perfect opportunity to get out your grill, and have a cookout. Or head somewhere fun for a picnic.

    Or you could do what we like to do on holidays. Make enough food for 20 people then watch Netflix all day and night in our jammies. Traditions are everything. Hang on tight to those!

    Kidding. Sort of.

    Usually we invite my family over and I cook up a storm. In my jammies. Are you sensing a theme here? Jammies are everything. Just like traditions, family, and Netflix. In no particular order.

    I also love grilling on long weekends. I can take my time and just relax outside with a good book. Or a stack of magazines I haven't had time to read in months. Sometimes I just nap. Until I smell smoke. The I know dinner is done.

    Kidding. Sort of.

    Any time we enjoy long weekends with family there's always lots of cheesecake to go with all the grilling. For me cheesecake goes hand in hand with any holiday. Any season. Any reason. I can never get enough cheesecake in my life.

    No bake desserts are perfect for long weekends too. You can have great food without a lot of effort. That way you can spend more time with your family. Watching Netflix.

    I highly recommend making Parfaits over the holiday weekend as well. They are SO easy to make and everyone loves them. I am completely obsessed with parfaits. I've been making them forever. They're cute and delicious.

    So break out the grill, all your cheesecake pans, your parfait dishes, and your jammies. This Memorial Day weekend is going to rock. Lots of family, friends, food and fun. Plus Netflix in jammies.
