Continuing on with our Queen of Last Minute Party Planning!! Working, keeping up with the littles, but still dreaming of being that Pinterest perfect mama!! 4th of July is THIS Thursday! Don’t Panic!! Here are some fun, easy, quick ideas of themed dishes to take to that Independence Day Party you were invited to!! Everyone will love how creative you were and never know you did this last minute!!
As always!! A few of these are my photos, other’s are incredible ideas from Pinterest, adding my own little twist to some!! I have everything saved to our 4th of July Pinterest Page!! Head over to see the original poster && get more AMERICA ideas!!! I’m bringing everything together in one spot for you!!
Fruit Salad!! Mix together Strawberries, Bananas, Blueberries, Raspberries! You can even top it with some coconut shred if you’re feeling fancy!!
In charge of Fruit and have a little extra time to prep?? Try these adorable Fruit Sparklers with blueberries and watermelon!!
This is one of my favorites!! Everyone loves Ice Cream on a hot Summer day!! Cover the sides of an Ice Cream Sandwich in Red, White, and Blue Sprinkles!! Easy to wrap back up or lay on parchment paper and put back in the freezer until you’re ready for them!!
Got the girls coming over?? Get fun and add a bomb pop to your glass of sparkling wine!! Let the bomb pop sit in there and eat slowly, let it get wine infused a little! lol Got the LITTLE girls coming over?? Add a bomb pop to a glass of sprite! Let them feel fancy with you!!
Speaking of making your drinks fun!! Add Pop Rocks to the edge of your drinks!! Whether for your margaritas or the little one’s drinks!! They will get a huge kick out of the little fireworks popping in their mouths!!
Add Pop Rocks to everything!!! Sprinkle on top of your cupcakes (I saying go get those store bought ones lol and add a POP!!) Don’t put them on until right before serving though!! If they sit too long, especially onto of icing, they get moisture in them and losing their pop!! (At least that happened to me once!!)
Patriotic Snack Mix!! I mixed a bag of Chex Mix and a Bag of Red, White, and Blue M&M’s together!! SUPER easy && quick and the little ones LOVED it!!
(I’m not even kidding, Penelope, my 2 year old took this photo!! lol Check out our Instagram to see her in action!! It was too cute!!)
Doing a Family Movie Night this week?? Keep this this theme and add Red, White, and Blue M&M’s to your popcorn! The perfect mix of Salty && Sweet!!
Last Ditch Efforts!! Did you sign up to bring something that you can’t make Red, White, and Blue?? Add cute little tooth picks with American Flags on them!!! I’ve seen these everywhere lately!! Especially Party and Craft Stores!!
ORRR Just add Sparklers to anything you bring!! That’ll make sure your dish is the talk of the party!!!
