There’s something about summer that reminds me of food from my junior high days — sipping Capri Suns at the neighborhood pool or riding bicycles to a matinee and eating nachos with neon yellow cheese in the air conditioning. Food was almost always there as backdrop for the moment and rarely the point.
With a similar spirit in mind, we put together a 4th of July menu fueled by nostalgia for that simplicity and ease. Perhaps that memory is clouded by time, but for one day this summer, we’re indulging in the revelry and taking advantage of the shortcuts and ingredients that keep us out of the kitchen and at the party instead.
We found that almost everyone craves these classic flavors too. From sweet, sticky wings made even easier with bottled BBQ sauce and the slow cooker, to super-cheesy nachos, to easy ice cream cakes you make in muffin tins, here’s what to eat to transport you back to the summers of your junior high and high school glory days.
