What's Cookin' This 4th?


What's on your grill or in your picnic basket this 4th of July holiday? 
True, it may be less-than-ideal the holiday falls during the week...but whether you're celebrating on Thursday or firing up the grill this weekend (or both) we thought we'd share some tasty options for making your parties delicious.


Let's start with marination. Any time you make your own sauce, glaze or marinade you're doing yourself a favor. Bottled dressings and BBQ sauces can up the sodium and sugar levels unnecessarily. Consider grabbing the ingredients you'll need to create your own homemade sauce and more. Start with this Grilled Chicken with Fresh Grape Glaze from Cooking Light. 


If you're looking for an alternative to burgers, hot dogs and steak, try a Mango Rice Salad with Grilled Shrimp. 


And if you think agree pizza goes with every holiday, consider Grilled Pizza with Prosciutto, Arugula and Lemon.


Whatever you decide to create enjoy every delicious bite!
