These 21 Day Fix 4th of July recipes are perfect for your 4th of July celebrations, potlucks, BBQs and basically everything else summery and red, white and blue. I mean, it includes a red, white and blue sangria…and we all need a little red, white and blue sangria in our lives.
But really, I was trying to decide if I’d write this post or not (you could always just search for 21 Day Fix BBQ recipes and call it a day). The thing I love about the 4th, though, besides the BBQ part, is that it’s such a colorful, family-oriented event (at least in our town). I just love it. I’ve gone from appreciating it from a patriotic standpoint to really embracing it as a holiday the whole family loves.
And sometimes, that means pretty, summery, red, white and blue foods that are good for you, too. Here are my favorites (not all red, white, and blue…but all delicious!).
