Whether you're planning a casual picnic or a big backyard barbecue, these recipes will help make your 4th of July a truly spectacular occasion.

4th of July food should be easy to make and easy to carry with you wherever you go, whether it's a neighborhood pot luck party or a picnic at the beach.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with the traditional 4th of July fare -- burgers, hot dogs, cole slaw and potato salad. But why not jazz things up a bit with new twists on old favorites? Top your burgers with radish basil pesto instead of ketchup. Turn your hot dogs into quesadillas? And make your cole slaw a broccoli slaw instead?

These Fourth of July recipes are healthy, delicious and many of them can be made in advance, so you can have more time with your guests and spend less time in the kitchen.
