Can you believe it’s already July?? This summer has been flying by and I don’t see any signs of it slowing down. While we still have many warm months ahead of us, I can’t help but feel like I need to get a move on arranging some of my favorite summer activities. What better way to enjoy warm weather than by having a potluck-style cookout? Fun friends, great food, cold beverages, and beautiful weather-it doesn’t get any better than that.
With the Fourth of July coming up in two short days, I thought I would share a round-up of recipes that would be perfect for your holiday celebrations or your next cookout. Some of these recipes are on my list to try this summer, while others are made in my kitchen often and I know you and your family will love them.
