Hi —
The Fourth of July is quickly approaching, and for us that means a day spent outside with lots of eats and treats! The food needs to be undeniably tasty, festive, and easy to prepare.
To help get ready for the celebration, today I'm sharing a collection of my favorite Fourth of July recipes.
These recipes are perfect for the Fourth of July or anytime you need a winning dish that's both healthy and delicious.
On this list you'll find:
- Easy options that taste great at room temperature.
- Delicious sides that you can make in advance.
- The prettiest, most patriotic dessert.
- A festive cocktail to wash it all down.
