I can’t believe the end of summer is upon us! I love Labor Day weekend but it is always a little sad to say good-bye to all the sunny memories made over the summer. With that being said though, as hot as some areas have been, I am sure a lot of people are looking forward to some cooler weather! Send summer out with a bang with these 20 Best Burger Recipes, amazing sides like this easy grilled corn and end it with a sweet dessert like my Grilled Pineapple!

If you’re following Weight Watchers, all the recipes here have been updated to reflect the new Weight Watchers program, with points displayed under the recipe title.

If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous meal plans here) that are meant as a guide, with plenty of wiggle room for you to add more food, coffee, beverages, fruits, snacks, dessert, wine, etc. or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for recipes by course in the index. Depending on your goals, you should aim for at least 1500 calories* per day. There’s no one size fits all, this will range by your goals, your age, weight, etc.

There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.
