These grilling recipes under 6 points hit the sweet spot where smoky flavor meets smart choices—without making you feel like you’re chewing on lettuce just to stay on track. You can still char, crisp, and sear your way through summer without side-eyeing the scale. It’s all about cooking smarter, not smaller. And honestly, nothing beats the flex of feeding a crowd with food that tastes bold but keeps things light.
