It's just we two this year and I will just do hotdogs, beans, and a salad of sort. 

What about you?

We have a huge family get together/reunion on my mom's side of the family every 4th.   It's a huge carry in.  I'm bringing a dill cucumber salad and either baked beans or I may take some chicken wings.

 So far our menu consists of hot dogs and cornbread salad.

We were all over the place with traveling plans this 4th, but as of last night, we will be home (work schedules interfere with the holiday!). So I will be making - sometime this weekend - 

Hot dogs, bean bake (my late MIL's recipe), macaroni and/or potato salad, deviled eggs,  and watermelon. I'm keeping it simple!

@RedTop

Can you please share your cornbread salad recipe?

I was going to fry chicken, but since DH desn't care for fried food, I will grill kielbasa and serve with corn on the cob, produce market is giving away a tote of white corn with a $30 purchase, so it will be a corny weekend, lol, and a mac salad, and will make stuffed eggs for DH during the day as we will be gardening.

@Harpa,

Typically cornbread salad is a layered salad, but my family doesn't care for the layers and prefers everything be stirred together and the cornbread wet.  I never use Jiffy cornbread mix for this salad.   

I make and crumble my favorite cornbread recipe, add 2 cans of Lucks pinto beans (I do not drain and rinse), chopped onion, tomato, green pepper, a can of corn drained, grated cheddar cheese, then add prepared ranch dressing with sour cream added, and stir together.

I am bringing a strawberry pretzel salad and a watermelon to a family BBQ.
