Red, White & Blue Party Tips

I like to keep the party theme fun and simple. Here's a few easy tips for adding a splash of red, white and blue to your Independence Day celebration.

While there aren't a lot of "blue" foods, blueberries are a natural for the 4th of July. A scoop of vanilla vegan ice cream topped with strawberries and blueberries is always a winner.

Another fun and festive way to celebrate the 4th is with these cute and simple red, white and blue fruit skewers made with fresh raspberries, blueberries, and mini vegan marshmallows. Rinse the berries and let them air dry before adding to the wood skewers. I filled the bottom of the glass with sugar to keep the skewers neatly arranged.

These blue and white plates and bowls made the perfect setting for our zesty watermelon pico de gallo, hearty meatless meatballs, and heavenly homemade hummus.
