Happy 4th of July! Happy Birthday America! Even though it’s a little early, we wanted to provide these meal ideas in advance to help with your summer holiday planning! As we get ready to celebrate America’s Independence with fireworks, family get-togethers and other festivities, we want to help you enjoy some flavor popping REAL food meals! What better time to impress your family and friends…and inspire them to eat healthy at the same time!
This is the perfect time to fire up the grill! So we have, of course, included ideas to help you do just that! You can’t go wrong with the Grilled Balsamic Chicken Legs, or the Avocado and Spicy Mayo Stuffed Burgers — they are both incredibly delicious! The Salmon taco lettuce wraps are also fantastic and refreshing on a hot summer day. While you are at it, grill some corn on the cob for the flavor-packed Summer Tomato and Grilled Corn Salad. And, of course, the holiday wouldn’t be complete without a REAL dessert…Chocolate Mousse with Fresh Berries! Any of these would be excellent choices to serve your family or friends!
For those busy weeknights, the Zucchini Pizza Boats are a fantastic option, especially using fresh, in-season ingredients. Plus, the Roasted Beet Penne Pasta is a fun and easy meal and will help you keep your commitment to the June Superfood of the Month!
For a festive drink, check out the Red, White and Blueberry Spritzer! We hope this helps your advance planning for a safe, fun and relaxing holiday!
