Easy 4th of July Appetizers

When summer rolls around, Americans start to get excited for Independence Day. The Fourth of July is a time to celebrate our nation's birthday with parades, barbecues, and fireworks.

It's also a time to enjoy some delicious summer party food. Besides opening a bag of chips and a can of dip, you can put together a few other appetizers that are easy that your guest will enjoy while the hamburgers and hot dogs are on the grill.

Here are a few very easy appetizer ideas:

Fill celery boats with cream cheese and top them with small American flags.
Mini hot dogs wrapped in pre-made croissant dough and baked until golden brown. Serve them with ketchup and mustard for dipping.
Cut star shapes out of different flavors of cheese to serve with crackers.
Another option is to stuff cherry tomatoes with mozzarella and pesto.
For something a little more patriotic, try making a red, white, and blue fruit salad served with cinnamon and sugar crackers.

No matter what you serve, your guests are sure to enjoy these Fourth of July themed appetizers.

Make Ahead Appetizers to Freeze

Planning for a party can sometimes be overwhelming. You could ask for help and have guests bring an appetizer or dessert. But what if you really want to do the cooking yourself?

Try prepping ahead and freezing some of the recipes. Here are a few things to keep in mind when freezing appetizers:

First, make sure that the appetizers are fully cooked before freezing. This will help to prevent them from drying out or becoming overcooked.
Second, use freezer-safe containers to store the appetizers. This will help to keep them fresh and minimize freezer burn.
Finally, label the containers with the date and contents. This will help you to keep track of what you have on hand and make sure that you're using the freshest ingredients.
