Glazed Salmon Fillets

Five ingredient recipes make every occasion easier! So why not make a menu of 5 ingredient recipes for your Fourth of July Party? Wait, shouldn't that be four ingredient recipes for the 4th of July? Oh well.

This recipe is divided into two kinds: cooked on the grill, and made ahead of time. So all you need to do is find someone who loves to grill (there's always one at every party), then pull foods out of the fridge and freezer, and the party can start!

Have a wonderful and safe Fourth of July.

Fourth of July Five Ingredient Menu

  • Crockpot Crab Spread
    Crab is a delicious treat: it's sweet, suave, and delicious. And in this spread, a small amount can feed a group of people quite easily.
  • Smoked Gouda and Peach Salad
    This easy five ingredient salad recipe has a ton of flavor. Peaches or nectarines or mangoes would be good with the smoky cheese and fresh and crisp greens.
  • Grilled New Potatoes
    I love grilled potatoes and so does most everyone else! This easy recipe is perfect on the grill cooked next to the swordfish.
  • Glazed Salmon Fillets
    Halibut or tuna steaks would be good cooked this way too. These fillets can be cooked under the broiler or on the grill: your choice!
  • Easy Tartufo
    This easy and elegant recipe is the perfect end to a holiday meal. Serve the little balls in goblets, topped with some whipped cream and a cherry. Yum.
