Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
I love July 4th! Not only because I love our country but also because of all the fun events, decor and food that incorporates our national colors of red, white and blue. This red, white and blue no bake cheesecake recipe came about as I was racking my brain trying to decide what to make for Memorial Day {same colors and all}. I didn’t end up making it for that BBQ but got to playing around with the recipe later the next week with July 4th firmly planted in my head as inspiration.

I love coordinating food colors to the holidays. With Memorial Day and July 4th coming up, my head is swimming with ideas of red, white and blue foods.

Delicious and easy is exactly what I want when throwing together a last minute BBQ for friends.
