Independence Day Fruit Tray
No recipe needed for this one! It can be as big or as small as fits your gathering. Take your favorite red fruits and use those, along with blueberries and banana, to create the American flag! We picked cherries and raspberries for the version below, but you can use watermelon, strawberries, grapes, or even goji berries if you’re feeling super fancy.
