Celebrate America's birthday with five dinners packed with over-the-top flavor, ready in 45 minutes or less.
Pretend you slaved over an open fire all day by serving this sweet-and-savory chicken sandwich. Your guests will swear you slow-roasted the bird thanks to the rich mix of ingredients including garlic, cumin, honey, Worcestershire, and chipotle chiles.
Update a favorite summer sandwich by adding a hearty scoop of flavorful homemade egg salad to the prep list. The salad recipe calls for eight eggs, two with the yolks removed, which lightens the recipe without losing any of the flavor.

Pack this family-sized hoagie for your picnic to watch the fireworks. It's loaded with roast beef, veggies, and a fresh basil mayonnaise. Use an unlit sparkler to hold the slices together, or use toothpicks instead.

Balance the heat of this spicy burger with a sweet and satisfying slaw. Your taste buds will forget that ketchup ever existed.
Keep these delectable sandwiches warm on the road by wrapping them in foil. The hot jalapeño jelly, used to baste the pork while it cooks, adds a subtle heat to the spiced tenderloin. Serve with a sauce made from ranch dressing and barbecue sauce.
