4th of July

4th of July recipes need to survive New Orleans heat and outdoor entertaining! After years of hosting summer cookouts, I’ve learned what really works without making you sweat over a hot stove.

These patriotic dishes celebrate America without the stress. Red, white, and blue desserts that photograph beautifully. Make-ahead salads that taste better after sitting.

My kids love the decorating part almost as much as the eating. We’ve made some gloriously imperfect flag cakes over the years, and they’re always their favorites.

Most of these 4th of July recipes can be prepped the day before because nobody wants to miss the fireworks stuck in the kitchen.
