I don’t know about everyone else, but my very favorite part about 4th of July is the wonderfully delicious food. It’s kind of an escape from my every day summer diet, but i indulge every year on our country’s birthday. Since i do consider myself somewhat of a (4th of July) food connoisseur, I decided to share some of my favorite recipes for you to share with your family and friends! Enjoy
