This simple recipe is also easy to double, which means you can make a batch big enough for the entire party. Plus, you probably already have all the ingredients on hand, so you won&#39;t have to brave the grocery store a few days before the holiday.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/ina-garten\/flag-cake-recipe-1941624\" target=\"_blank\">Flag Cake<\/a> [Food Network]<br \/>\nIf you want to go a bit bigger, take Ina Garten&#39;s advice and make her Flag Cake. True to Ina&#39;s cooking style, this cake features ample amounts of butter, sugar, and other traditional ingredients&mdash;nothing trendy here. But the addition of cream cheese frosting and fresh berries, laid out to evoke the American flag, bring a freshness and airiness to this otherwise dense cake.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/patriotic-gelatin-salad\" target=\"_blank\">Patriotic Gelatin Salad<\/a> [Taste of Home]<br \/>\nYou don&#39;t have to be a seasoned baker to recreate the cute, festive Jello salad. It&#39;s as simple as layering red, white, and blue gelatin in a fluted tube pan and sticking it in the fridge. By the time you&#39;re done, each slice of this Jello salad will look like a sliver of the American flag.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pophld\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/apartmentsstaging.naproperties.com\/nap-cincinnatiwp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/red_2388849_640_640.jpg\" style=\"margin:0;padding:0;\" title=\"Pixabay\/mistockshop\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin:0;padding:0;clear:both;\"><em>Public Domain\/<a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/en\/red-white-blue-independence-day-2388849\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pixabay\/mistockshop<\/a><\/em><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Independence Day right around the corner, it&#39;s time to start thinking about the menu for those backyard barbecues.
