I love food at an outdoor BBQ! There is always a huge variety and you can try out new recipes with no shame. Last year, I did a round up of 4th of July themed eats here that you might enjoy and I also have a Lemon Berry Trifle recipe that would be amaze, which you can find here.
Couscous Fruit Salad by Noble Pig
Red, White, and Blue Summer Salad by Real Mom Kitchen- add chicken and you have a main dish!
Blueberry, Strawberry, Jicama Salsa by Two Peas and Their Pod- I've also seen this done as a fruit salad without all the spiciness. Just sub the jicama for apple, cilantro for basil and take out all the spicy elements.
Red, White, and Bleu Slaw by Taste of Home
Easy Flag Fruit Dessert by Family Fresh Meals - you could also sub cheese (brie, swiss, white cheddar, etc.) on here for the white component.
Patriotic Oreo Pops by Makoodle
Red, White, and Blue Rice Krispy Sparkler by 5 Minutes for Mom
Red Velvet 4th of July Cupcakes by Your Cup of Cake
Linking up with Emily for Tuesday's Recipe Swap! Go check out some of these awesome recipes being shared!
So many fun and festive foods!!! We are planning on grilling out for the 4th since we will be at the beach. I haven't tried any fruit (besides cranberry) with couscous...that is a good idea!
