Fourth of July Star Spangled Dishes

With July 4th falling on a Friday this year I’m thrilled that we have that day off which means I get a 3-day weekend.  WOO HOO!!!  Don’t get me wrong, I understand that’s not the true meaning of July 4th or why we really should celebrate it but this girl is tuckered out! I need a break and trust me, it can’t come fast enough. I’m looking forward to 3 days of nothing-ness or pants.  I hate wearing pants.  Well okay I love pants but I hate putting them on after I workout/shower as well it’s an effort so by default I hate pants.  Just go with it, k?

Right now I have no clue what we’re doing for the 4th – perhaps our friends will have a party or maybe we’ll just stay here and enjoy ‘us’ time.  Either way much food will be involved. I mean that’s a given when I’m around.  When you’re with me you eat; it’s like a law or something!  LOL

I decided, when creating this menu, to give you a huge variety to choose from.

I’m sure burgers and hot dogs are a given at most cook outs as they seem to be All American but if you want to kick it up a notch add a few of these yummy dishes!
