4th of July Menu

Hello friends, can you believe the 4th of July (Independence Day in the US) is just a few days away? The blistering heat here in Utah makes it hard to forget summer, the real Utah 100°F + days of summer, are only beginning. Soon the heat will keep me inside. But, until then, lets plan a 4th of July menu you can enjoy inside or outside. Side note-if you’re a bring on the heat summer person ( or anyone planning to spend time outdoors in the heat), enjoy. But please stay hydrated and wear sunscreen. This has been a public service announcement from the Katherines Corner Network ( giggle).

Lets start with Breakfast.

Top your oatmeal with blueberries and strawberries ( yes there really is oatmeal in there.)

For Lunch

A salad filled with fresh veggies is always a good choice. It won’t make you feel overfull so you will still have plenty of energy for playing games, swimming and other activities. Add this red white and blue potato salad to your 4th of July menu. I found it on Food Network!

Mid Afternoon Snack

Fruitsicles, are a favorite with us and so easy to make too!

Dinner Time

Hamburgers! ( or veggie burgers)

One of our favorites this time of year. I shared how to make the best burgers in the past.

and Now for Dessert

Cookies and Ice cream, dust off your holiday star cookie cutter and ta daa!

I hope some of these ideas 4th of July menu ideas will appeal to you. Do you have a favorite 4th of July food?

I’ll see you back here on Thursday for TFT blog hop ( smile).
