A red, white, and blue menu—and everything else, too! That’s what a 4th of July picnic or BBQ party is all about, right? And of course what could be more all-American than burgers<\/a> and hotdogs<\/a> on the grill, picnic coolers<\/a> loaded with ice-cold juices, sodas, and beer, and patriotic-themed sweets and treats<\/a> for dessert.<\/p>\n

So while you may find multi-colored munchies a bit much at other times of the year, not on July 4th! The burger, hotdog, and side-dish recipes we’re featuring will be a hit with family and friends, especially the kids. Plus, we suggest snappy goodie bags to hold fun favors and themed novelties<\/a> to take home afterwards. Have a great Independence Day holiday!<\/p>\n

July 4th Picnic Ideas from Food to Favors<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Such creative ways with picnic favorites—playing up the red, white and blue from the ingredients to the garnishings to the serve ware! Then, snappy flag-inspired favor bags to go.<\/p>\n

\"4th<\/p>\n

Blue-tinted burger buns? Yup, Easy Peasy and Fun’s recipe<\/strong> for  4th of July Burgers<\/a> (1) shows how to do this with home-baked bread. Then, just add your meat patties, cheese slices, and tomatoes.<\/p>\n

Pair these with fun Firecracker Hot Dogs<\/a> (2) we found on ColaVita Recipes<\/strong>, wrapped around with pizza dough strips and topped with cheese stars. And set up a hot dog toppings bar<\/a> (3) like this one from I Heart Naptime<\/strong> for everyone to pile on their fave garnishes.<\/p>\n

Perfect sides would be this Patriotic Pasta Salad<\/a> (4) from Sprinkle Some Fun<\/strong>—how festive is that mix of blue-tinted pasta bows, mini pepperoni, cheese stars, cherry tomatoes, and blueberries tossed in a vinaigrette dressing. And these oven-crisp Freedom Fries<\/a> (5) from Home is Where the Boat Is—dipped in egg whites, whisked with herbs and spices, then baked not fried!<\/p>\n

For drinks and dessert, how cool (literally) are this layered red, white and blue drink<\/a> (6) from Oh My! Creative<\/strong>, non-alcoholic and so refreshing. And this Red, White and Blue Ice Cream Cake<\/a> (7) from Foxes Love Lemons<\/strong>, topped with raspberries, blueberries, and star sprinkles of course!<\/p>\n

Finally, prep a star-spangled send off for all. These super-easy goodie bags<\/a> (8), from our own 4th of July garden wedding set, are white paper lunch bags, trimmed with flag-themed labels and red ribbon. Just fill with themed favors and home-baked treats to wrap-up the holiday fun.<\/p>\n
