- Salads and starters. It’s always nice to have some appetizers for people to munch on while the grill is fired up. While chips and cookies are nice snacks, you can bring some healthy choices to the mix, with garden, potato, and macaroni salads. It is also handy to have some fresh fruit, like apples, watermelon, or grapes as a healthy alternative. If you want the best of both worlds, consider a cheese and cracker tray that adds fruit and other spreads as well. 
- Meats for one and all. For the main course of your gathering, there are many different dishes to try. The standards, like hot dogs and hamburgers, are usual favorites for party people. But you can expand to steaks, chicken, and roasts, which are all excellent on a grill. You can even grill up your sides as well, like baked potatoes and corn on the cob. Try other favorites like grilled cheese or pizza too!
- Desserts and treats. There’s nothing like a great meal. Except for desserts! Popsicles and ice cream are fun treats to have, even better are ice cream cakes! Jello, sweet rolls, and snack cakes can be fun but don’t forget about adding fruits like strawberries or blueberries to your favorite cold treat. Be sure to have a cooler with a good supply of ice so any frozen treats stay cool while in the heat.
