These Two Bite Pies are perfect for Memorial Day, the 4th of July or any summer BBQ or potluck. Make the filling ahead of time for a great easy treat!
I don’t know about you, but I have really been loving all of the red, white and blue projects and recipes in anticipation of the 4th of July. I’ll be a little sad to see them all go after tomorrow.
The worst part is there isn’t a fun food holiday in sight for a while after that. Is there? Am I missing one? Or after the 4th do we have to wait for pumpkin season to have something to celebrate?!
I know… just the mere mention of pumpkin season brought twinkles to some of your eyes and the rest of you are rolling them. Ok. Fine. I’ll move on.
Back to the good ole Red, White and Blue!
One of my favorite parts about cooking for the 4th, other that the patriotic part of course, is how easy it is to get the colors with berries. I LOOOOOVE berries. With all of the great fresh berries in the stores lately, I have been going crazy.
I’d be perfectly happy making a different red, white and blue recipe with blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and cherries every day for the month leading into the 4th. You guys (and my husband!) would tire of it long before I would.
So when Cindy’s Recipes and Writings picked easy 4th of July recipes as this week’s recipe, I knew it had to include berries. That brings me to these pies.
Two bite strawberry and blueberry pies that are no bake and so easy!
They would be perfect for your Fourth of July parties. They would also be great for any spring or summer picnic. You can of course make just one flavor or the other.
My husband, who doesn’t even really like sweets all that much, kept going back for more to decide which he liked better. He couldn’t decide. He said they were both a big win. I’ll take it!
More red white and blue recipe ideas
Red white and blue no churn ice cream is a cool and creamy patriotic treat. You can have it in the freezer in just a few minutes.
Red white and blueberry dinner salad takes those same strawberries and blueberries and puts them on top of mixed greens. Add some chicken, cheese and a homemade dressing and you will be ready to dig in!
Or start the day with some red white and blueberry sourdough waffles. Top them with strawberries and maple whipped cream for an extra special breakfast.
