I am SO excited to share all of my 4th of July recipes with you this week! They are not the Pinterest ones you see everywhere but new and fun ways to celebrate the US of A! Use Endive or slices of a Baguette Layer: Goat cheese Strawberries, chopped Basil, julienned Balsamic reduction Pistachios, chopped Dash of Ground Pepper ETC. Tonight I’m serving the toppings over greens and a chicken breast for dinner. Use the endive. It’s low carb and has a great crunch!
