Oh Say, Can You...Eat: Best July Fourth Recipes

By Crystal Huskey 

If there's ever a time that calls for firing up the grill and icing down that rolling cooler, it's definitely the Fourth of July. 

Everyone has their favorite Independence Day treat. For some it's the Southern-style potato salad made with mustard, others prefer it sans the yellow condiment and load it up with ketchup and onions. (Curry ketchup, anyone?) Some spreads include patriotic trifles, homemade bbq sauces and deviled eggs, while others prefer a bean salad and vegan hot dog.

To that we say: to each red-blooded American, his or her own. After all, isn't the freedom to honestly say you think your apple pie is better than your mother-in-law's what this country is all about?

So go ahead, share your favorite recipe with us! Tell us where you got it (or if it's your own creation) and why you love it. We're practically drooling already!
