4TH OF JULY TREATS | 2 PATRIOTIC CHARCUTERIE SNACK BOARDS

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

👋 Hello! Question for you, what do you cook 👩‍🍳 on 4th of July for your family?

[@rhondaboggs5539]

We usually grill hit dogs, hamburgers, pork chops, just whatever anyone wants. I make potato salad and one of my daughters make baked beans. And for dessert later on, it's watermelon 🍉. I loved both of the trays but if I had to chose it would definitely be the cheese and fruit tray. Thanks for sharing Lauren.

[@sandradouglas6874]

Wow,wow,wow! Can’t decide which one I like more!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Let’s just go with both! Thanks! Little effort for a big wow! 🤩

[@jackiebest5613]

They both look great and all my favs on both boards. If I had to choose I would prob go with the savory board. Thanks!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Hello Jackie! The savory one is my favorite too but the kids would always say the candy. Luckily we they eat both! Have a great week.

[@melissaporterfield2732]

Oh Lauren I adore watching you. No matter what year it is or the journey you are taking us on or whatever your having a tutorial on! ❤️

[@heatherharris897]

Love the candy one...soooo fun!!! The fruit one looks delicious ❤

[@tinan5349]

Candy all the way but the cheese one looks fabulous. Great job!! The fruit plate you made looked soooo good!!!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thanks Tina, they were fun to put together. I agree that I would choose both. Have a wonderful week! Happy 4th 🇺🇸

[@kimbradbury9107]

Oh my goodness. They both look delicious & pretty. You got talent girl. I like the shape of the sandy board it looks like the flag waving in the wind

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thank you so much Kim! Yes, I love that tray and how it looks wavy. Charcuterie boards are low effort for big impact. They are easier than they look and everyone always loves them. Happy fourth 🇺🇸

[@kellyrogers4630]

I love them both! They turned out so pretty and festive looking. Everyone would love a dessert charcuterie board and if a person uses fruits, cheeses, crackers, meats and veggies that kids like too the other charcuterie board is good for them too. I love making them to fit whatever occasion we are celebrating. :)

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Me too, aren’t they just the best. They are so versatile and always a hit no matter the occasion. Thanks for watching Kelly, so grateful you’re here!

[@nicole4783]

It's uplifting for the American spirit!🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I need to plan for these again this year!

[@NayStouffer]

So creative, and both look delicious. The candy would be a huge hit with the kids, but I would love to try the fruit, nuts, cheeses and meat tray. I will be saving this video to try making soon!! Happy 4th of July!! 🇺🇸 💥 ❤️ 🤍💙

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Hey Janai! Glad this gave you some ideas. I agree, kids love the candy but they also love all the fruit so it’s a big win all around! Making fruit, cheese, meat, and veggie trays is my hosting go to, no one can resist them. Happy 4th!!!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thank you so much! It is always such a fun time at the cabin with you all.

[@cherylgreen7299]

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

You are so welcome!

[@lourdesfalcon4335]

Both are beautiful 😍

[@beckystokes9061]

What a hard decision. But I really loved the sweet treat tray. I definitely think I will have to put something like this together for our family cookout Sunday. ❤️ Thank you for the cute ideas!

[@paulapaul3082]

I would like both of these,

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thank you! Glad you like both, they are so easy and fun.

[@bonecrusher9745]

You are absolutely amazing. What stores do you usually do your grocery shopping at? Do you stock up on water? Can you possibly do more in store videos? I think it would be awesome if you could show how you do your full shopping trip

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thanks! I shop mostly at Costco. Check out my other videos for lots of Alaska shopping videos!

[@myrakillough8575]

I’m more of a savory person but the flag was really cute! We love to cookout a lot in the summer. I’ve found some great veggie salads on Pinterest then potato salad and deviled eggs with fresh cut watermelon for dessert.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Hello 👋 Myra. How are you? Veggie salads and deviled eggs are some of my summer favorites!! Have a great week!

[@brilliantbutblue]

They both look amazing!! The fruit 🍓🍇and cheese🧀 would be my favorite although l am a sweet tooth so ld be heading for the candy soon after 🍬🍫🤭. Do you always serve chilli on 4th July or are there other special dishes that people would make? Thankyou so much for sharing you are very creative 👍

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I like your style, start with one and move to the other. We don’t have any traditional 4th of July food, usually it is anything b-b-q like hamburgers and hot dogs is what a lot of people eat as they hang out together. I’d be curious to know what other people eat on 4th of July. I’ll ask and see if anyone answers. All the footage from this video was from last year because it was too late to post it then. 😀

[@This_Intentional_Life]

Fruit and cheese of course!!!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Yes! Might sneak some really good chocolate in there with it
