How are you celebrating the Forth of July? I feel like with most holidays the Forth puts a lot of focus on food! BBQ’s are common this weekend, do you have any go to recipes that you prepare?
I am thankful for gatherings in the summer because I think on average there are lighter and fresher food options than winter holidays. I love any type of fresh fruit salad, balsamic vinegar has a special place in my heart so tomato/mozzarella salad is always a go to, and thankfully many BBQ’s focus around a fun meat option! My brother in law smoked chicken thighs last weekend and they were amazing and a lighter option than a hamburger or hot dog.
Below are a few recipes I am going to try out this weekend, let us know what you are making!
Healthy Pasta Salad: We had something similar to this last weekend so I am going to try to recreate it by using this recipe.
Pulled “Chicken”: We are doing this to make sure we have left overs for the week!
Margaritas: Is it unpatriotic to have a margarita on July 4th?!
