May is California Beef Month and National Burger Month, 2 reasons to get inspired for your Memorial Day Party.  Food and Lifestyle Expert Whitney Bond has some delicious entertaining ideas. 

 

Our US ranchers are some of the most progressive livestock producers in the world, and often exceed the highest environmental, food safety, and animal health standards. They work hard to get beef from the pasture to your plate.

 

And speaking of plate, let’s talk about this delicious, lean Western Burger.  I like to use ground chuck, which comes from the shoulder of the cow and has about 20% fat, so it makes for a rich and tender burger.  Load it up with some California styled toppings, like jalapeno, avocado with a lettuce wrap, it’s the perfect burger to serve at your Memorial Day party.  You can check out more delicious recipes like this at CalBeef.org or download the app BEEFabulous.

 

Pomegranates are the original super fruit.  POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice is an antioxidant superpower and has a ton of potassium, so it’s great for refueling after workouts and the perfect base for mocktails and cocktails .  In just one 16 oz bottle, you get the juice of four whole pomegranates, and that’s it- no added sugar, artificial ingredients or cheap filler juices. Use it as the star ingredient in a refreshing fruit mocktail the whole family can enjoy at your Memorial Day party.  This is the Summer Breeze, made with a combo of POM Wonderful juice, lemonade, club soda and some fresh blueberries. You can find it along with other great recipes on POMWonderful.com.
