We had a wonderful day for our July 4th celebration. My boys and I gathered with family and friends at the JC Bermudez Park in Doral, for an afternoon of playing, running, talking, eating and enjoying!
Tiza, my mom and I prepared (or bought) yummy food: sandwiches, pasta salad, fruit salad, sangria, decorated marshmallows and cookies. Here are a couple of the recipes:
Chicken with avocado sandwiches - I was inspired by a recipe online but ended up making it diferently. I bought sliced roasted chicken at the deli and prepared a spread with avocado, diced tomato, red onion, salt, peper and a slpash of lime juice. The combination was delicious!

White Sangria - I mixed one bottle of white wine with a can of diet Sierra Mist. I added a shot of Brandy, cubed appples and peaches, a bit of sugar and cheers!
