Red, White and Blue Party Foods
If you have been to my blog before, you know that I LOVE creating content around 4th of July. I love the colorful red, white and blue USA theme and there are so many easy ideas for food and decor that will tie in perfectly. Summer also just happens to be the time of year when we find ourselves going to parties, picnics, potlucks and on camping trips with friends. All of these events offer the perfect excuse to whip up an American flag themed dish.
We have quite a few holiday themed charcuterie boards on the site at this point. Many of those boards feature desserts, but today’s addition is more of a traditional meat and cheese board.
