Main dish
You can choose several recipes for the main dish, but hashbrown breakfast casserole, sausage and gravy casserole, and chicken spinach wraps are my go-to entrees when it comes to Fourth of July.
The hashbrown casserole is a breakfast lover’s dream! The cooked sausage is combined with eggs, evaporated milk, salt and pepper, and Italian seasoning before being whisked and topped with cheddar cheese. And what’s good about the recipe is its flexibility. For one, you can use ham instead of sausage!
While the hashbrown casserole is laden with creaminess from cheddar cheese, this sausage and gravy casserole is filled with the savory goodness of peppered gravy mix, eggs, and milk. The recipe is suitable for any occasion, from holiday get-togethers to simple Sunday morning breakfast feasts.
Last but not least, the chicken spinach wraps! Whether you have them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this entree is sure to become a family favorite.
And who would believe that these wraps only require eight ingredients? Just secure spinach wraps, Romaine lettuce, chicken breast, bacon, tomato, mozzarella, provolone cheese, ranch dressing, and do a little rolling and folding—then, that’s it!
