Fourth of July Recipes That Are Sure To Amaze

WESTLAND, Mich. - 4th of July is tomorrow and we know that you want everything to be perfect at your celebration. That's why we have looked and found some amazing 4th of July inspired recipes that will amaze your family and friends.

First, we have a seven-layer dip that would be great for your guests to snack on. For this recipe, you'll need:

1. 1 can (16 oz) of Refried Beans
2. 1 tbsp. Taco Seasoning Mix
3. 1 Cup Sour Cream
4. 1 Cup Salsa
5. 1 Cup Shredded Lettuce
6. 1 Cup Shredded Four Cheese
7. 4 Green Onions, Sliced
8. 2 tbsp. Sliced Black Olives

This dish is super simple for having so many ingredient, and it's super delicious. Simply mix the taco seasoning mix in with the refried beans and spread onto the bottom of the plate you'll be using. We recommend using a pie plate or casserole dish, depending on how much you decide to make. After you have spread the beans, just layer each remaining ingredient. It's that simple! After it's layered, make sure to refrigerate until chilled and serve with chips.

Our second recipe is for dessert and is called Firecracker Bark! This is perfect for 4th of July and is sure to be something that everyone will love. You'll need:

1. 22 Ounces White Chocolate Chips
2. 4 Packets of Pop Rocks Candy (2 Strawberry, 2 Blue Raspberry)
3. Wax/Parchment Paper

For this recipe, you'll need to melt the white chocolate and pour it onto your wax paper lined pan. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate out until the bark is as thin/thick as you'd like. Then, sprinkle the pop rocks on top and let cool for an hour. After it's cooled, you can break the bark into pieces and serve! It's delicious and each bite has a little spark!

The final recipe is a layered drink that is perfect for 4th of July festivities. While you can use whichever drinks you'd like, we used:

1. 1 Bottle of SOBE Pina Coloda 
2. 1 G2 Blueberry Pomegranate
3. One Gatorade Fruit Punch

The trick to making the layered drink is knowing the sugar content of each drink that you use. The drink with the highest sugar content goes first, as it will remain at the bottom. Then, you add the layers of drink by decreasing sugar content, meaning the drink with the lowest sugar content will be on top. The sugar is what makes the drink separate into layers. It's super easy and looks great!

We hope you enjoy these super easy Fourth of July recipes that are sure to amaze. Enjoy your holiday!
