4th of July Food, Dessert and Cupcakes
4th of July is a time for families to celebrate our country – a time to gather, enjoy family time and make memories. Part of those special memories is the 4th of July Food and Dessert. Are you heading to a Cookout? Maybe hosting a Potluck? I’ve gathered up some of my favorite recipes for you to celebrate the 4th of July Holiday!
It’s funny how food on the holidays creates extra special memories. I bet if I asked my boys what they received for Christmas 5 years ago (or last year for that matter) they would not know. But I bet they could tell you about the meatloaf shaped like a Jack O’ Lantern, or the Chex Mix on Christmas, and yes – fun red, white and blue food for the 4th of July.
Holiday food doesn’t have to be fancy to mean a lot. Some of the simplest recipes are our favorites.
