What’s for Dinner? July 4th Edition
Sorry I missed sharing a recipe last week, I was crazy busy with the move, but I am settling back into my routine and am back as is What’s for Dinner Wednesday! This week since we are coming up on July 4th I thought I would share some really easy but festive July 4th treats.
- One really easy thing to do is make a tray of red and blue jello jigglers cut in the shape of stars you can also combine the platter with rice krispie treats in the shape of stars. They are festive treats that transport easy and are kid friendly finger food.
- make a cake and frost with white frosting, then use blueberries and strawberries cut in half to make it look like an American flag.
- take a clear bowl ( glass or plastic) and layer your favorite treats in red, white and blue. I like to layer a fruit in red then angel food cake torn into little cubes, then whip cream, them a blue fruit then cake, then whip cream. Keep layering until the bowl is full and you have a yummy, festive bowl of red white and blue.
I know these are very simple but they all travel well and are easy to take to a party or on a picnic. Next week when I have unburied my recipe collection I promise something more inspiring. In the mean time be sure to share your favorite July 4th dish!
