4th of July Fruit Platter
It’s red, white, and blue and healthy for you! This is such a fun way to serve fruit for any patriotic party. Perfect for the 4th of July, Memorial Day, or Labor Day, your guests will love this fun flag. This is one of the quickest, easiest platters you can put together since you’re just slicing and serving. No cooking, no hot oven on a hot summer day, and the end result is colorful and festive.
Pair it with your favorite fruit dip. I love an easy Cool Whip, vanilla pudding, and yogurt dip. Mix up your red and blue fruits. Get creative with white substitutions. White chocolate-covered pretzels or angel food cake make good alternatives too.
Whatever you do, enjoy your holiday with the loved ones that mean the most to you.
