My best 4th of July side dish recipes

Published 10 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

With Independence Day just around the corner, you may be planning a gathering with family or friends.

Maybe you're firing up the grill for the main dishes (check out this amazing southwest chicken marinade recipe), but could use some inspiration for crowd-pleasing side dishes.

I am here to help! Some of my favorite recipes are summer side dishes, from no crunch macaroni salad to creamy broccoli salad to ramen noodle salad. They're soooo tasty.

And also, I have a bunch of red, white, and blue desserts that are sure to be crowd pleasers too.

There's a pictorial list of all of my 4th of July recipes on my site if you want something that's not on the list above.

I know this has gotten long, but also, I wanted to share 30 fun 4th of July crafts for the littles in your life.

Enjoy your holiday!

Hi Reader, A couple days ago, I shared fun food ideas for your kids or your sweetheart. If you missed that email, they were heart-shaped pizza, heart-shaped cherry hand pies, and no churn red velvet ice cream. All very simple to make, and all fun and impressive. However, if you are preparing a romantic meal for your sweetheart or a special meal for just you, I thought you might like some more sophisticated and grown up dishes. Here are a few of my favorites: get the recipe: air fryer prime...
