Fourth of July: Celebrating America’s Melting Pot

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.

The Fourth of July is a great food holiday because, as a celebration of America’s birthday, it is a perfect time to explore foods from our country’s vast melting pot of family recipes. For me, a meal that includes a Thai-inspired fried chicken, Salvadoran cole slaw, grilled corn on the cob, and my Granny’s peach cobbler is a meal that tells a story with every delicious bite. Gather up your friends and family and fire up the grill — you’ll find some great recipes here for your Independence Day celebration, and make sure to bring a piece of your own history to the table!
