    The Perfect 4th of July Cookout Menu

    by Waverly Wilde

    The Fourth of July is a great American holiday. From the electrifying firework displays to the quality time you get to spend with the fam, to even the warm weather, it’s a day that’s unlike any other – especially when it comes to the food!

    Independence Day is known for its tasty barbecues, and we’ve got just the menu to keep people coming back for more! Check out these unique recipes you’ll want to make for your friends and family this 4th!

     

    Beverages and BBQ

    Summertime means watermelon is in season, so you can eat all the watermelon your heart desires! This refreshing Watermelon Raspberry Lemonade recipe is a fantastic, hydrating beverage for the hot weather. And when you combine it with lemonade, you get the perfect mixture of sweet and sour. Your guests will love it so much they’ll be shouting “Sip, sip, hooray,” with every gulp!

     

    Hor D’oeuvres for the Hungry

    Before providing your main course, make this healthy Baked Asparagus Fries with Lemon Herb Aioli appetizer to hold people over while they finish their game of Cornhole. Is there anything worse than a hungry guest? Grill up some of these yummy asparagus fries so you never have to find out!

    Asparagus fries are a wonderful guilt-free alternative to actual fries. Dip them in a lemon herb aioli sauce and you’ll be hooked on making these on your grill for the rest of the summer.

     

    Delicious dogs

    We’re spicing up your Fourth of July favorite with this BLT Hot Dogs with Caraway Remoulade! Instead of just a simple hot dog – although don’t get us wrong, those are delicious – this recipe calls for applewood-smoked bacon! Yes, BACON. You may wonder if it’s a hot dog or a sandwich with all the chopped tomatoes, lettuce, and other condiments and toppings. Doesn’t matter – either way, your tastebuds will be exploding from all the flavors.

     

    Patriotic Popsicles

    You’re never too old for a popsicle! The classic drip down the chin and sticky fingers are what make a 4th of July cookout memorable. These patriotic frozen Red, White, and Blueberry Yogurt Popsicles are a party favorite not only because of their fruity, creamy taste, but also because of the fun design.
