When it comes time to have some fun in the summer, it is important that you get all of your 4th of July recipes ready to go. You do not want to disappoint for that big event and there are so many tasty options that it really does make sense to try and have some fun with it. The following are some of the best ideas you can try out for your 4th of July recipes to make everyone happy.
The Grill
The first thing you need to do is bring out the grill. Nothing says summer like grilling up some hot dogs, hamburgers, steaks, or even some fish if that is what your guests enjoy.
The smell of the grill and the smoky flavors that engulf your food just screams summer. Add on some kebabs or a few corn on the cobs and you have the start of everyone’s favorite meal.
Salads
Your list of 4th of July Recipes is not complete without a good lineup of salads. Pasta salads are the best because there are so many varieties and you are going to be able to find something for everyone. Just make sure that you are not picking out options that have a lot of mayonnaise in them. A bit of time in the sun and you will be seeing all of your guests go home sick.
Fruit
Cool off with some delicious fruit in the backyard while waiting for the meat to cook. Watermelon is a great option, but do not forget some of the other refreshing treats like strawberries, grapes, apples, and pineapple. Make sure to get a huge salad put together so everyone can enjoy the melody of fruit in their mouth.
Desserts
Of course, your list of 4th of July recipes is not going to be complete without at least a few desserts. Try to go a bit festive and put the red white and blue into it all. Make a jello cake with these colors in them, which is easy to do, or try some cookies that have been decorated to look like the flag. Pick something that is nice and light to keep the fun going. Pretty much any of your summer desserts can be spruced up with this theme so have a bit of fun with it and your party is sure to turn into a major success.
