33 Healthy Summer BBQ Ideas {Paleo}

Sharing is caring!

So I went for 30 and could only narrow it down to 33 😉 This epic roundup of 33 Healthy Summer BBQ Ideas includes everything from grilled ribeye to spicy mango popsicles, to vegan lemonade tarts, to paleo watermelon margaritas!

I decided to include every category you’d ever want at any outdoor gathering – including appetizers and drinks.  There’s also loads of the best paleo potato salads and other summer salads, grilled kabobs, and desserts featuring fresh summer ingredients like berries, cherries and peaches.

A few of the recipes are from my blog and the others are compiled from my favorite fellow healthy food bloggers.  All the recipes are either paleo (or very easy to adapt to paleo!) and many are Whole30.  You’ll find a few vegan recipes (especially desserts) in the mix too!

I hope you find a few new recipes to try at your next outdoor party or BBQ this summer – celebrate and enjoy!

About Michele

More than a little into running and paleo recipes (yoga now too!) but I'm not here to rain on your grains (or anything else) so come along for the ride! I do a little too much of everything (except cleaning), and I enjoy laughing at myself. As long as I'm the one making the jokes, that is. Just kidding. So bring me your angst, your appetite and your frying pan and climb aboard!
