Peppercorn Steak

July is National Grilling Month! We love to grill in our home, and as long as the weather cooperates, we do so almost every night of the week! We make a conscious choice to try and grill healthy food on most nights (a few cheat nights here and there with some of our guilty pleasure treats and desserts). If you binged last week for the 4th (who didn’t?!), you may be searching for some healthier choices for this week.

According to a survey from Medifast, over half of the participants just sit and eat at a BBQ rather than move around and partake in physical activity…So why not add some healthy, light and delicious meals to the menu to make up for the lack in cardiovascular activity? To help combat the BBQ weight gain, Medifast has created a few grilling recipes perfect to help celebrate National Grilling Month while keeping you slim and trim, and I’ll be sharing a few of them over the next couple of weeks!
