    Love this roundup! The caprese salad? Yum. No clue what we are having on the 4th yet as we will be out of town and staying with family who are in the middle of a kitchen remodel. Guess we will be grilling and getting creative with everything else! 🙂

      Thanks so much Amy! Honestly, I’m a sucker for store bought potato and pasta salad, so I’d say have some of that (and whatever you’re grilling) and call it a day! 😉
